Highland Park 21 Year Old 2022 Release – Exceptional Single Malt Whisky
Indulge in the exceptional craftsmanship of the Highland Park 21 Year Old 2022 Release. This exquisite single malt whisky boasts a rich, complex profile, expertly crafted using only 14 specially selected casks. Laid down in 2000 and earlier, these casks have matured under the skilled guidance of Highland Park’s Master Whisky Maker, Gordon Motion, to deliver a whisky that truly embodies the spirit of the Orkney Islands.
Aromas of Bold Flavours and Intriguing Complexity
From the moment you open the bottle, the enticing aromas captivate your senses. You’ll experience hints of espresso coffee, dark chocolate, and the unique scent of marmalade on toast, all beautifully complemented by crushed coriander seeds. The nose develops further with a hint of tangy ginger and spices, courtesy of the first-fill, sherry-seasoned European oak hogsheads.
Masterful Marriage of Cask Types
The 2022 release of Highland Park 21 Year Old is the result of an intricate blend of three distinct cask types. First-fill, sherry-seasoned European oak barrels bring deep, spiced notes of ginger and citrus. Ex-bourbon barrels introduce layers of sweet citrus and cedar wood, while refill casks refine the blend, ensuring a smooth, balanced character. The result is a whisky with great depth and complexity, perfectly unified by Highland Park’s signature heather-infused peat smoke.
A Natural Whisky with Authentic Colour
This whisky features a natural, cask-driven colour without the use of additives, showcasing a deep golden hue that reflects the richness of its origins. Each sip brings out bold flavours like spiced gingerbread, citrus spices, and oranges studded with cloves. A gentle wisp of aromatic cedar wood ties everything together, while the signature heather-infused peat smoke lingers on the palate.
Experience the Highland Park Legacy
The Highland Park 21 Year Old 2022 Release is more than a drink; it’s an exploration of flavours that embody the rugged beauty and rich history of the Orkney Islands. With its bold, complex notes and refined craftsmanship, this limited-edition release is a must-have for whisky enthusiasts and collectors alike.
