Description
Highland Park 13Year Single Malt Scotch 128.4 Proof 750mL
This whisky is made for people who enjoy high‑proof, full‑flavored single malts with both peat / smoke and rich cask (sherry, oak, dark fruit) influence. It’s not subtle, but it rewards patience:
- Let it open up in a glass for a bit before drinking.
- A few drops of water will help dial back the proof and unlock additional aromatics / flavors (fruit, smoke, oak).
- It pairs well with rich foods—strong cheeses, dark chocolate, smoked meats, perhaps desserts with caramel or toffee.
-
Aroma Aromas of toasted coconut, cedarwood, crushed lemon / citrus zest; Turkish Delight; aromatic peat smoke. Sherry influence brings dried fruit, burnt caramel, perhaps a touch of oak spice. Palate Bold and full‑bodied. Fruit (dark fruit, possibly raisin, but also citrus / pink grapefruit), heavy sherry sweetness, toasted oak. Heather peat smoke, spice (some pepper, baking spices), with malt and a rich grain backbone. Chocolate and caramel notes may appear. Finish Long, layered finish. Lingering peat, drying/sherried oak, warm spices, maybe a slight licorice‑like or herbal edge, perhaps a smoky or floral fade. The alcohol is noticeable but well balanced if sipped properly.
