AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Distilled in 1982 and bottled in 2022, this 40-year-old Highland Park was released by Gordon & MacPhail as part of the prestigious Private Collection series. Matured for four decades in a refill sherry puncheon (cask #1155), the cask yielded 202 bottles at a natural 51.5% ABV, showcasing the remarkable depth that long ageing can bring to this classic Orkney spirit.
Highland Park Distillery, founded in 1798 in Kirkwall on the Orkney Islands, is one of Scotland’s most northerly distilleries. Its whisky is renowned for a distinctive balance of heather honey sweetness, gentle peat smoke and rich fruit, with the island’s maritime climate playing an important role in the slow maturation of its spirit.
Nose
Rich stewed raisin aromas mingle with fragrant apple and hints of cigar box. Smooth toasted almonds give way to dark cherry and brown sugar undertones.
Palate
Intense festive spices lead to Seville orange peel and soft garden mint. Rich Medjool dates and roasted coffee bean flavours are balanced by cracked black pepper.
Finish
A full, spicy finish that lingers with bright citrus zest and delicate, maritime smokiness.
