This latest release from the Orkney based distillery, which was created using casks selected by Highland Park, Master Whisky Maker, Gordon Motion, is said to deliver notes of charred cinnamon, mellow heathery smoke, vanilla sponge cake, lemon zest and fresh pineapple.
Commenting on the news, Gordon Motion, said: “Our insistence
on specially constructed sherry casks delivers a richness of flavour. Vanilla
and citrus notes lead and combine with the unique fragrant peat and creamy
mouthfeel synonymous with Highland Park. The hand selection of quality
first-fill and refill casks for Highland Park 15 Year Old delivers a rich
colour which is 100% natural.”
Highland Park 15 Year Old, will be available later this month
from specialist retailers, for a RRP of £80.00.
