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.

Makes for a good mixer but isn’t at all complex or smooth compared to many other single malts of a similar age. A cask strength offering could be interesting but this feels like a liqueur, too watery at 40% for the flavours to be meaningful enough.
Simply an amazing everyday sipper.
Introduced to this by a friend who claims it is his favourite. Its very nice, smooth, easy drinking and I enjoy it with a wee bit of ice, the chill the ice gives and the water as it melts opens this whisky with every sip. A great nose of honey, floral and oak. Slightly smoked the palate is spicy, a little bit fruity and the aftertaste is decent length, peaty and sweet. A great whisky at a very affordable price.
I agree with those who suggest this is best with water, and for the money, thats really what you're buying. For me it's not going to be one that you'd serve as a dram, but marry it with some ice and a good soda and you've got yourself something beautiful; its almost like this whiskey needs the dilution to get the best from it. I like whisky soda as an aperitif or just something to sip and watch the box with and for that, it serves with distinction. Subtly malted, a touch sweet and very very moreish.
Not too smoky, but with enough richness of flavour to be well set off by a drop of water. I used to be a speyside man,.and typically put off by overly strong peat and smoke flavours, but lately forays with whiskeys like this have helped me appreciate the complexity of flavour. It won't be the finest whisky in the world but its definitely a cut above most. Really enjoyable, and not so expensive you feel guilty splashing out a good measure whilst watching a favourite film.
