Highland Park 15 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a rich and complex spirit aged for 15 years. It features notes of cinnamon, vanilla, and heather peat smoke, crafted from sherry seasoned oak casks. Enjoy it neat or with a drop of water to appreciate its full flavour.
This is a wonderfully rich and complex single malt. Opening with rich and spicy aromas of crème brulee, heather honey and crumbled cinnamon, intensely fruity notes follow fresh pineapple dressed with a scattering of sun kissed lemon zest. There's a hint of freshly baked sponge cake too, warm from the oven, and you'll find cinnamon again, but toasted shards this time. Citrus and vanilla notes linger in the aromatic waves of peat smoke.
To create 15 Year Old Viking Heart, Gordon Motion, our Master Whisky Maker, selected predominantly sherry seasoned European oak casks to deliver warm, spicy notes and sherry seasoned American oak casks to provide a balance of sweet vanilla. Expertly adding just a few refill casks to soften and smooth the flavours, Gordon chose to bottle at 44% ABV to allow the whisky's vibrant fruitiness and distinctive heathery peat smoke to shine through.
Why a ceramic decanter? Rewind a century or two and our whisky would have been stored in earthenware vessels. Inspired by examples found at our distillery in Orkney, we asked Wade Ceramics if they could work with us to create a modern version. Established in 1810 and based in Stoke on Trent in England (known globally as the traditional home of ceramics) Wade share our commitment to environmental responsibility, focusing on sustainable manufacturing and using locally sourced raw materials. The lead free porcelain decanter is 100% food safe, glazed inside and out, and embossed with the lion and serpent design that appears on many of our glass bottles. Look closely at the back of the bottle and you'll find the heart motif that inspired this whisky's name.
Key Selling Points Permanent addition to our age led portfolio from an award winning distillery with a long history dating back to 1798. Created from casks hand selected by Gordon Motion, our Master Whisky Maker. The high percentage of first fill European oak sherry seasoned casks helps deliver a warm, dry spicy note whilst first fill American oak sherry seasoned casks back this up with notes of vanilla and crème brulee. Finally, the refill casks allow the DNA of Highland Park whisky to shine through, namely its gentle heather peat and lightly fruity character.
Complex & Rich A wild harmony of toasted cinnamon shards, mellow peat smoke, warm vanilla sponge cake, sun kissed lemon zest, fresh pineapple and heather rich honey. Cask driven natural colour.
