HIGHLAND PARK 56 YEAR SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY
ORKNEY, SCOTLAND
Listen up, folks: we've got just one bottle of this incredible, 56-year-old single malt from Highland Park — one. That’s how rare and scarce and totally singular this is.
The oldest whisky ever created on the remote islands of Orkney, it comes from a never-before-tasted cask from the same line that produced Highland Park's most exceptional whiskies to date — a first-fill, sherry-seasoned American oak puncheon that had never before been opened.
But that’s what’s historic about it.
This is what’s unique about it: the 16 years it spent finishing in sherry-seasoned casks should have created a monster of tannins and wood, but no, not at all. Not even a little. Not only is there none of the intense woodiness you'd expect, but you get these marvelous little grace notes as it unwinds: jasmine and lilac on the nose, Seville orange peel and lapsang souchong tea on the palate.
And the smoothness, and the poise … I could go on and on ...
And for all of you fans of Highland Park's distinctive (and wonderfully fragrant) Orkney heathered peat, let me assure you: even with all that complexity and vibrancy, it still shines through.
One final thing … the presentation case is a thing of beauty, and tells Orkney's ancient story through the Standing Stones of Stenness. Highland Park tells us that each case takes 70 hours of hand-carving to complete.
Of course, you could pour this into a mason jar and it would still be transcendent.
Collectibles don’t come more collectible than this, folks. Or more delicious. Or more memorable.
Secure it today and thank us — and the whisky gods — later.
