Highland Park 21 Year Old November 2019 Release Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml
Highland Park 21 Year Old November 2019 Release marks the distillery's relaunch of its beloved 21 year age statement after more than a decade off the core range due to aging stock shortages. This specific batch was drawn from 9 first-fill European sherry-seasoned oak hogsheads, 8 bourbon hogsheads, and 9 refill hogsheads, a combination that delivers a rounded, unique profile balancing warm spice and dried fruit against the softer character contributed by the refill casks.
Bottled at 46% ABV, the nose brings rich fresh mango and pear with a touch of peat smoke. The palate delivers a super rounded flavor profile of warm spices and dried fruit, beautifully complemented by pineapple, mango, pear, and exotic fruit sweetness from the refill casks. The finish is slightly citrusy and smoky, closing out one of the most celebrated modern releases in the Highland Park range.
Distilled at Highland Park's Orkney distillery, founded in 1798 and famed for its heather-driven peat sourced from nearby Hobbister Moor, this 21 year old expression is widely regarded by longtime fans as among the best Highland Park has ever released, making it a standout for serious single malt collectors chasing this specific November 2019 batch.
