Highland Park Cask Strength Release No.3

The third release of Highland Park's Cask Strength single malt is a complex whisky, made with a higher-than-normal proportion of Orkney peated malt, matured in a combination of three different types of casks - first-fill European and American oak sherry casks, and a smaller number of refill casks. Smoky aromas of smouldering peat, charred oak, honey-glazed lemons and crushed aniseed fill the nose, complemented by notes of ripe mango, cloudy heather honey, vanilla ice cream, dried violets, pink grapefruit zest, freshly-baked sponge cake and heathery peat smoke throughout the palate and lingering in the finish.
