Single Malt
Scotland
Sherry
A great introduction to Highland Park's famed heathery peat smoke, the 12 Year Old is matured predominantly in sherry-seasoned European and American oak casks, so it's spicy, citrusy, and full of smoky aromatics. This is part of the Orcadian distillery's impressive core range, which was treated to a smart new look in 2024.
Fresh, clean and very aromatic. Floral notes abound the senses with a light grassiness. Notes of creamy Manuka honey and a touch of juicy citrus with cream and a well-balanced sweetness.
Rather full with a pleasant depth. Lurking somewhere in the substratum a grilled orange lies. Notes of granary toast and green tea with jasmine. A touch of sweetness.
Quite long with peppery spice and wood shavings.

First glass of HP I’ve not enjoyed. Pretty rough and tastes cheap. Save yourself a few quid a buy a bottle of famous grouse...or some mouthwash. Not good.
I was recently given a bottle of HP 12 yr old. I have tried many whiskeys over the years and favour white horse, bells, famous grouse and JB. HP 12 yr old is the smoothest yet with a lovely nose and slides pleasantly across the palate. I will be choosing this brand wherever possible in future
An exceedingly good whisky.
I bought a bottle of this and it did not last long. Easy to drink, slightly sweet and not too much fire. Lovely
I don't get those down rating this. This is an amazing scotch with beautiful flavors my new go too with an Encore or Oliva cigar.
