An Unadulterated Expression of Strength and Flavor

 

Introducing Highland Park Cask Strength Release No. 3, a powerful and direct expression of whisky that is bottled straight from the cask without any dilution. This release continues the celebrated tradition of Highland Park's Cask Strength series, known for its extraordinary depth, complexity, and impeccably balanced flavors.

 

Crafted with Exceptional Cask Harmony

 

Release No. 3 is meticulously crafted from a finely tuned balance of three different cask types: first-fill sherry seasoned American oak, first-fill sherry seasoned European oak, and a selection of refill casks to add nuance and depth. This combination ensures a rich tapestry of flavors, enhanced by the natural intensity of the undiluted spirit.

 

Robust Peaty Character

 

Under the guidance of Master Whisky Maker Gordon Motion, this release emphasizes a higher proportion of Orkney peated malt, lending the whisky an intensely smoky profile. The smoke is immediately evident on the nose, where notes of smoldering peat mingle with lightly charred oak, creating a robust first impression.

 

Tasting Notes

 

  • Nose: The aroma is a compelling blend of smoky peat and charred oak, balanced with the sweetness of honey-glazed lemons and a subtle hint of crushed aniseed.
  • Palate: Upon tasting, the whisky reveals a complex array of flavors including ripe mango, cloudy heather honey, and whipped vanilla cream, complemented by a light touch of aromatic violet. The addition of water can further unveil these layers, allowing for a personalized tasting experience.
  • Finish: The finish is long and memorable, marked by notes of pink grapefruit zest, freshly-baked sponge cake, and a lingering gust of heathery peat smoke that ties all the elements together beautifully.

 

Personalize Your Experience

 

Highland Park Cask Strength Release No. 3 invites whisky enthusiasts to experiment with the addition of water to tailor the flavor profile to their liking. This interactive element allows each individual to explore the whisky’s distinctive notes in a way that best suits their palate.
