Winner of this years award for Best Single Malt Scotch Whisky in the Island Malts category, Highland Park 21 Year Old is a legendary whisky with a noteworthy reputation. It was first released as a limited-time bottling in 2009 and named the World's Best Single Malt Scotch Whisky in the same year. Over a decade then passed before Highland Park Master Whisky Maker, Gordon Motion finally deemed a selection of casks exceptional enough to match the quality of the original and re-released it. The whisky opens with aromas of sun-ripened plums, heather honey and aromatic peat smoke. On the palate, a delicate interplay of flavors balanced between stone fruit and aromatic smoke, with hints of vanilla and sweet spice leading to a lengthy and contemplative finish. Highland Park 21 Year Old is a singular dram that should be experienced at least once.
