  1. Moses scored this whisky 92 points Connoisseur

    I had waited a long time for it. With the closed bottle on the shelf at home, I was looking for cheap samples. Now I was lucky that André had done that shortly before Corona. So it was finally possible for me to devote enough time to the "King of HP" with enough large samples. From here, a big thank you to André.
    • Nose
      Who goes to the glass too quickly and not at least 30 minutes. can wait a bit disappointed. Only the standards are there immediately: oak, peat and the best notes of sherry. But then after a certain amount of time in the glass plus a few drops of water, the very large fruit basket spreads out. You will find everything your heart desires very interwoven and complex. It feels like the fruit cream tart from the pastry shop! Heijeijei, what a nose. If the palate and the finish survive this, this evening will last until late into the night.
    • Taste
      With a lot of power and volume, he does exactly what the nose promised. Impressive notes of sherry without getting obtrusively dirty. With a texture balance of sweet, salty, sour and pleasantly bitter, he lets his 25 year old muscles flex. At least now I have understood how the hefty price came about. But I wouldn't make it a unicorn, because for me it is the logical further development of the 18er. So you can explain it quickly. The big brother of the famous 18, but striking and much more complex. Butter biscuits spread with jam. Tender caramel and grapes in dark chocolate nuts round off the experience. Warm, tangy spiciness leads to the transition.
      WOW: That should never end!
    • Finish
      A delicate transition to the finish. The finest oak chips lie in a cigar box made of the finest leather and are covered with old tobacco leaves. Everything stays on the palate for a long time like hot dark chocolate and brings back memories of the fruit basket nose on all levels. Amazing! What this malt delivers is the very highest art, also in terms of barrel management. Here the best of everything has been given to the best people. Nothing is left to chance. A class 25, carefully planned down to the last detail. Arrived in whisky heaven. Thanks to HP, just great!

    It's hard to find words that do this Single Malt justice. For many connoisseurs, Highland Park 25 is the Holy Grail of the distillery's official bottlings, and rightly so. I could literally spend hours with my nose in the Glencairn. Dark fruits, white chocolate and juicy oranges take turns with spices, cocoa beans and rummy notes. An explosion of sweet, dry and peppery flavors coats the palate while being perfectly balanced and complex at the same time. Distant hints of smoke remain of a prolonged, sweet and spicy finish. This Orcadian whisky is liquid gold!

    Where do I line up for the life time supply?
    This is ridiculous good whisky.
    Thanks to Feorag86 for the sample.
    • Nose
      96 96
      First nosing; quality, well matured and complex quality.
      So many fruits I can hardly separate them.
      Very sweet apples, peach and pear along with oranges to name a few.
      There's flowers too, I'm just not good with their names.
      Then chocolate, toffee, nougat, rum raisin, honey.
      It's all just floating about in waves waiting to be discovered.
    • Taste
      95 95
      Silky sensory pleasure.
      Spicy, almost prickly pepper on the arrival, quickly turning to a sweeter and rounder allspice.
      Going a little dryer on cocoa powder, coffee, leather.
      Hard to identify the lighter fruit notes from the nose under all the spice and bold darkness, but it's present underneath.
    • Finish
      90 90
      I will not call the finish disappointing, because it's hard to follow such a nose and pallate. But I would have prefered it a little sweeter and less dry. No complaints about lenght, and there is a nice touch of fruit under a transperent blanket of light smoke at the very end.

    Although it states "new bottle design" for 2012 it was in fact a new bottle design for the 2007 release https://www.whiskybase.com/whiskies/whisky/34416/highland-park-25-year-old that was bottled at 48.1% abv. The 2012 release was the first of many different batches at 45.7% abv. And that first release in 2012 at 45.7% abv doesn't mean that all HP 25yo of 45.7% abv are bottled in 2012. Unfortunately HP doesn't do anything to indicated the different batches that have come out over the last six years.

    The HP 25yo I believe was released annually from 2012-2018 and I would estimate that the 30yo HPs of the same abv 45.7% had 3-5 different batches over the years starting in 2012 -2018, as well I've personally seen difference in colour between two bottles of the same 45.7% abv.

    Although it's well known that almost every year there was new bottles hitting the market at higher prices points in accordance with each new batch release. There is no discernible markings or stamp dating to indicate batch differences like with the Glendronach core range releases.

    One really needs to have two different batches to compare the colour difference, if you see a HP 25yo and its more gold colour with very little hint of amber that's the one that I had and rated an 87 https://www.whiskybase.com/whiskies/whisky/79566 , the darker one is a shade or two darker and you would definitely notice it being amber in colour to a certain degree. Although an 87 is not a bad mark but it is when there are many different batches sitting on store shelves at $750cnd and one does not know exactly what quality of batch one is getting.

    Conclusion and pictures on: https://tomtrinkt.de
    • Nose
      Immediately after pouring, the 25-year-old Highland Park is already showing its full-bodied, intense and elegant side. A multifaceted conglomeration of many different flavors flows to me hesitantly. With the Nosing one can well and gladly spend an hour. Wavy changes the nose and gradually unfolds its full potential. Lots of dates, many juicy oranges, a few dried orange peel, caramel sweets, dark chocolate, cocoa for baking and intense honey notes form the first aromatic base. The sherynoten win in the course of nosing significantly in intensity. Over ripe apples, hints of red fruits, raisins, walnuts, roasted almonds and many different spices (eg nutmeg and ginger) mix with spicy oak notes. The background is always a delicate smoky note. The alcohol (45.7%) is perfectly integrated.
    • Taste
      The texture of the Highland Park is silky soft, almost syrupy, the malt wets the entire oral cavity. A few peppercorns prance on the tip of the tongue for a short time before the dark, spicy-sweet aromas fully unfold. Juicy oranges, hints of red fruit, raisins, dates, honey, caramel, sweet pipe tobacco, dark dark chocolate and a touch of espresso mingle with many different spices and stately oak notes. The fine smoky note blends in wonderfully with the harmonious overall picture. The taste is very harmonious and balanced, always intense, elegant and multi-faceted.
    • Finish
      Long, sweet and spicy and warm. Black cherries, baked apples, juicy oranges, dates, raisins and plenty of dark dark chocolate are present. A short time later, nutmeg, cinnamon, a touch of leather, sweet pipe tobacco and spicy, old Eichholznoten follow. The fine smoky note lingers pleasantly in the background again and ensures the final fine-tuning. A subtle dryness remains on the palate.

    It has a lot to offer ... but do not give it a whiff, but serve it bit by bit, bit by bit, so that you can take your time with the aroma research. A gentleman.
    • Nose
      Very fruity at the beginning: fresh apples, apricots, peaches. Orangenmus. Over it a hint of lavender, rose water, a touch of violet perfume. Behind them are toffee sweets, caramel and honey. It becomes chocolaty, first whole milk, then rather towards nougat / noisette. Over time, the fresh fruit, the malt is darker, earthier, it comes in raisins inlaid raisins, dried and sulfurized apricot pieces (but no sulfur notes). Very slight smoky note, which could be confused with a herbal note.
    • Taste
      Full and creamy, slightly dry, the lavender and the violet perfume from the nose, but here at the beginning of much chocolate and freshly sliced ​​raisin bread. Leather notes. Oak pushes in, but does not reach the foreground. Very mild smoke. Mild herbs, spices (cinnamon, coriander, allspice). Over time, it gets even drier, but keeps the balance very nice.
    • Finish
      Medium long, dry, orange peel, dark chocolate.

  7. EinSpatzUnterVielen scored this whisky 92 points Expert Senior

    A very fine HP, multi-layered, full of flavors, very balanced and simply delicious! (In direct comparison with my favorite drop of HP, the Highland Park 30y, 45.7%, WID: 43729, he has to give in all the way, he just plays in a different league.)
    • Nose
      Milk chocolate, caramel, heather, honey, fine sweet herbs (oregano?), Sweet oranges, light smoke, raisins, light grapes, apples, freshly grated cucumber, rose water, a touch of coconut, a hint of almonds, a hint of cinnamon, fresh sea breeze After a while, the chocolate darkens, strawberries, cherries and raspberries are added, very flowery-fruity, melon, peppermint
    • Taste
      sparkling start, like the bite into a juicy orange with a little shell, dark chocolate, the barrel is there at the same time as the orange, the chocolate turns into spicy espresso. Very spicy, cinnamon + cloves + nutmeg, raisins, quince marmalade, honey, slightly burnt caramel, ripe aromatic apples, again a touch of honeydew melon. Strawberries, raspberries, every sip tingles and warms, white pepper spreads; Over and over again, the juicy sweet orange and the pleasantly hot espresso, leather.
    • Finish
      Oranges, oranges, Espressooooooo ... Leather notes, smoke and in the end black tea with some white melon and cucumber (interesting!), Apples and a hint of eucalyptus ... medium ... sweet-herb-peppery with nutmeg

    [February, 2021] Another different batch of the (usually) excellent 25-years old Highland Park, so far I enjoyed all of them...

    ...and this legacy does not change. This is very quaffable stuff, actually it is dangerously quaffable (dangerous both to your health and your wallet). What else to say? Slàinte!
    • Nose
      91 91
      The colour is deep copper and the nose offers the excellent HP profile with its trademark heather honey aroma beside fruits, autumn florals, waxes, spices and shy peaty impressions. All is well balanced and without any off-note. The wood provides a sound but never dominating backing to the spirit-driven aromas, just the way it should be. It grows stronger upon breathing so take your time with this nose, and if available use a big spherical blender's glass which makes a huge difference to a Glencairn.
    • Taste
      92 92
      The taste is complex and nicely layered which makes chewing a great joy. All the adorable aromas of the nose repeat themselves on the palate and they support each other greatly. The wood is a little stronger than it was with the nose but this is highly welcomed given the sweet fruity-honeyed-sugary profile. Old-style waxes, vegetable oils and bitter herbs ensure the balance and generate a very interesting tasting experience. Again, no flaw or imbalance that I can find.
    • Finish
      91 91
      The initial mouthfeel is warming and instantly coats all parts with a creamy texture, pretty nice. The finish is long and adds more spices and traces of cocoa which I really like. No bitter-astringent moments until the very end, this was an excellent casks selection. Water releases more aromas in the nose and turns the taste even more quaffable but like so often the layers intermingle now. I like to explore this dram neat first and then add some drops for an enhanced drinking pleasure.

    a tension from the nose to the finish he impresses with a beautiful interweaving of distillery character and barrel the share of Ex-Bourbon Cask has done its part warm and complex with a well-defined aroma game - a seducer Yes! I'm in Heaven - 92 out of 100 points _______________________________
    if anyone wants to know what barrel chocolate is: barrel notes like chocolate, a bit rough and dry, almost like cocoa powder, a transparent taste not as solid as chocolate
    • Nose
      old school slightly smoky with sweet caramel Peat, bog water, heather, cucumber water, caramelised herbs, crushed light brown raisins Over time, sherry becomes more and more dominant but remains firmly interwoven with old harmonious cymbals - very nice complex, warm and salivary nose You already know how good he is
    • Taste

  10. Koning scored this whisky 92 points Expert Senior

    Refined and complex whisky. Compared to the HP18 it is definitely less fruity and sweet, it is spicier and more sherried instead. I like that isn't buried in sherry though, it has a 'clear' mouthfeel, adding to its complexity.
    • Nose

    • Taste

    Honey and apricots galore. Just fantastic!

    Not sure if I'm the only one but after having tasted also a sample of the Highland Park 30yo I actually prefer the 25yo over it and it is even available at a much lower price (about half the price).

    This is a review of the second darkest batch release that I've seen. I have a darker one that I haven't opened yet. My earlier review was an 87 of a very light colour batch that was gold in colour without any amber. This one is much better with strong flavour profile on both the nose and palate.
    • Nose

      Very strong rich heather honey which fills the room. Mild caramel, butterscotch and sweet fruits.

    A special drop for special moments with special people, nothing for everyday life.

    The elegance and complexity of the first nose evaporates over time. After 2 months he's just a shadow of himself.

      Nuts and chocolate are there immediately, and Amarena cherries are added. A journey from kisses to Cheri;).
      Then there are light fruits such as pear, peach, orange juice and zest, so a very pleasantly light barrel influence. There is a little mint freshness over everything and caramel rounds off the nosing

    I have to say this malt rightly deserves its good reputation. Simply a fantastically balanced, multi-layered and elegant whisky that lacks intensity and character in the finest way.

    The epitome of complexity and power. The hint of smoke completes the finish almost to perfection. I recommend pouring 2-3 ounces, letting this whisky breathe for at least 15 minutes in a glass before starting your evaluation. It will evolve in your glass over the next hour.

    awesome stuff - on the evening you do not need to do anything else :)
    • Nose
      Voluminous, he needs his time in the glass to be decipherable, dates sweet orange and orange peel with mint and a little citrus oil, a delicate bouillon sulfur note that perfectly matches the sherry tones of the nose, fine smoke that connects so finely with the spice-laden oak - that you can never name exactly if you still smells the smoke or even the oak. Oily tobacco, black tea, a cascade of flowers (violet, rose water, jasmine) - the nose has strength and endurance.
    • Taste
      dry astringent sweetness, initially very mild, almost disappointing and then it builds up - demands space, tobacco and sweet fruits tickle on the tongue, tartaric acid provides a nice antipode, very spicy, with some pepper and beautiful voluminous fruity complex - not primitive typical First Fill Club but just class.

      still dry - fine astringent texture, light citrus notes, dried fruit, tobacco, oak full

    Great stuff, lovely on the palate with great balance but I think the old dumpy bottles are very slightly better and the later 50.7% version but there is very little in it.

    It is hard to fault whisky when its this good.

    Excellent.
    • Nose
      The nose is actually not that expressive at first but you can certainly smell the peat, wood & sherry.

      Give it time in the glass and it develops, mixed berries, dark fruit jams like blackcurrant.

      There is also some warm fresh pastries.
    • Taste
      Profile wise this is more like the 18 year than the 21 but like an 18 on steroids and older with it.

      The first attack is great, punchy yet not overpowering, sweet sherry, peat is perfectly weighted, very jammy and lip smacking.

      Great balance

    Top Whisky, where 400 € are for that far beyond good and evil.
    The 2006 bottling (WID: 316) really got me off the hook a few years ago, that was an experience, but in comparison, this one is as cozy as it gets.
    • Nose
      dark chocolate, dark old wood, walnut ... furniture polish, a hint of dry herbs (marjoram / oregano), a blend of cocoa and tobacco (haha, cocoa tobacco) ... orange marmalade, raisins, very sweet, overripe, cracked apples are added... After a long life dominate cocoa and furniture polish, beautiful subtly noble sweet and tart
    • Taste
      Chocolate, caramel, burnt toast, sweetish tobacco, a drop of maple syrup ... in the meantime, it also reminds me a little bit of coke sweets ... earthy, leathery ... intense, full-bodied, oily and round in the mouth, not stciht, burns or scratch
    • Finish
      long, first creamy-chocolaty, then dry and warm, cocoa, a dusty-spicy sensation on the tongue, a hint of cloves and cinnamon

    Fantastic! Absolutely on the level of its predecessors, maybe even better in some respects. Less brisk, but rounder.
    • Nose
      Very full aroma. Vanilla caramel sweets, orange cream, dark cocoa powder, honey - albeit slightly different than the otherwise characteristic heather honey. Here the honey smell is heavier, more intense. Danish honey cake comes to my mind, with traditional spices like cardamom, muscat, maybe a touch of dried ginger. The longer I devote myself to enjoyment, the clearer the orange becomes. Not fresh, but slowly and intelligently reduced. The subliminal smokiness in the combination can expect a great taste.
    • Taste
      Mmmhmm! A crispy roast duck in orange sauce sizzling slowly in the oven is my first association. Sounds far-fetched? Not at all. Let's look at the individual elements. The fine smoke mixes with the festive-looking taste of glazed chestnuts. Already has a bit of BBQ. Creamy caramel notes and the warm, rich aromas of the orange reduction already hinted at in the nose remind me impressively why Highland Park has been one of my favorite distilleries for many years - even though I do not care for unnecessary carvings or overpriced NAS. The alcohol is wonderfully integrated here.
    • Finish
      The rich "fullness", the full-bodied feeling, runs like a red thread through the entire taste experience. And the conclusion? The HP25 ironically holds its elegant sweetness and never appears dry. Limey and mineral, it goes very slowly and gracefully into the light.

    The nose promises a lot of what the taste for me even exceeds, the finish is not so intense for me, 48% I think he had perfected. But still very delicious
    • Nose
      soft wood with dried fruits flood the nose, rum-raisins, dates, figs and sweet Waldhoning, all very softly round and wonderfully integrated, but the old one notices wonderfully through the moldy woodiness, with time the fresher Sherryaromen come through stronger, my tip Olloroso. The alcohol does not stand out and everything looks very creamy, The drops on the Gleaswand form very slowly and run back tough. After some time, citrus fruits such as blood orange or grapefruit without the pungent acidity. Very beautiful Harmonious and complex with a beautiful, very careful herbal note of rosemary and oregano
    • Taste
      direct is clear warm spice throughout the mouth, in addition to the rum roses with a light pepperiness have a pleasant warming effect, herbs, oak, Butterscotsch, caramel and dried fruit alternate and pave with a flavors, light bitter chocolate comes through
    • Finish
      The finish is surprisingly light at first, then come the wonderful oak flavors that have almost echoed a little sandalwood and then it stays long lasting and warming with dried cigars and dark chocolate, above all still resonates with this light honey sweetness.

    He needs a lot of time in the glass. After pouring in, I was amazed how little there is. With a little time the malt opens. In the taste unfortunately a little too lax for a toppaint. Even the finish could be longer and more intense ...

    I like this one but it doesn't match its current over £300 price. I bought mine at £167 which was more in line with the contents.
    • Nose
      The colour is a little lighter than the darker, redder 2006 edition, but quite beautiful still: a light copper or deep gold with reddish tint. Nose: Heather & other flora. Something slightly salted meats-like about it. A rich nose, sweet, meadlike. Cranberry, white chocolate, parmesan?, and that wonderful old wine cask wood again. Almond oil? The nose seems more dominated by sherrylike smells than heathery, peaty or smoky ones but they're all to be found there. A wood note that hangs just short from that slightly sour taste that can appear in well aged whisky. This I think is noticeably less sherried than the 2006 but works well anyway. It seems to get a little smokier with water.
    • Taste
      Even neat this taste works terrifically. It rakes the tongue a bit but the flowers (more like berry leaves or little wildflowers than something like roses or tulips), the balanced juicy sherriness and the oily woody body just take me away. A little water later the raking on the tongue goes away, making way to a beautiful tannic feeling in the gums with a bit of peat burn tickle to it. Wood bark. Despite being under 46% this benefits definitely from some decanting.
    • Finish
      The aftertaste is a bit hollow. It should be a little bolder. The 2006 edition is better in this department. This is one of those whiskys to be enjoyed on good nose days because it is quite delicate and on a bad day you might miss some of the detail.

    For a first-fill sherry finish, I have almost no fruit, that was in the 2007er execution still andes. Here the barrel outweighs, which is in no case negative.
    • Nose
      Heather, spicy forest honey, light peat, some damp wood, cherries, apricot, gooseberry
    • Taste
      Seasoning, oak, coffee, dark chocolate, light toffee, nuances of fruit.
    • Finish
      It leaves a touch of oak in conjunction with a shallow spice, which initiates a sheer endless finish.

    This bottling of 25 year old Highland Park single malt is made with whisky taken from ex-sherry and bourbon casks and bottled at 45.7% abv, slightly lower than previous 25 year old expressions from the Orkney distillery. It was awarded 100 points out of 100 at the 2013 Ultimate Spirits Challenge in New York

    I am spoilt!
    • Nose
      Hmm, the nose is very waxy and peaty and I love it. Of
      course, we are talking heathery Orkney peat, not the medicinal in your face Islay peat. Loads of fruit à la peach, pineapple on the
      grill and dried apricots. The honey is quite nice, perfectly combined with the
      caramel (not too much, luckily). Roasted nuts. Wet
      grass and even some forest scents. Mint and aniseed! This is quite complex. I
      could smell this for hours!
    • Taste
      Ooh, powerful attack with loads of spices. Nutmeg, black pepper, cloves and ginger. The oak is bigger, but not
      bitter at all. Honey, caramel, nuts, chestnuts, fruit and a slightly salty edge
      giving this HP a nice depth. Wonderful trace of
      woodsmoke.
    • Finish
      The finish sets you aflame and lasts quite long, spicy
      all the way.

    A superb whisky that delights. Even if a bit expensive ...
    • Nose
      Fairly light and fresh at first. Sweet and fruity scents develop gradually giving the impression of feeling rum.
    • Taste
      Superbly complex. Fruits, spices (pepper), a hint of smoked peat ending on a slightly bitter note.
    • Finish
      Relatively long but very smooth. Fruits and spices persist, as well as flavors of hazelnuts and dark chocolate enhanced by a touch of citrus.

    • Nose
      92 92
      Full bodied, extensively layered and perfectly balanced. Fruity dates from clean sherry casks, banana, green apples and orange peels. Moments later the nose shifts to an intense floral bouquet. Roses and lavender, heather flowers but also ink, an old cupboard and a hint of sigarette smoke as if this old cupboard once stood in a 1970's living room.
    • Taste
      92 92
      Starts out creamy and fresh. Roses and pine. Floral notes turning sweeter in a most beautiful way, now entering sherry territory. Still elegant and creamy but also slightly drying with notes of leather, dark chocolate and canvas wax.
    • Finish
      91 91
      Gentle but instant creamy coating. Slightly drying herbs alongside vapor-like sweet smoke. More sherry goodness here with pronounced milk chocolate cocoa notes, a hint of cloves and tobacco. Never bitter, never unpleasant.

    I had this malt in 2011 for the first time and was delighted. Top HP next to the 30 (#1) and the Ragnvald (#3) so far. HP 1976 and 40 are still on my bucketlist. Samples to trade welcome!

    Ragnvald is really Rögnvald Kali Kollson an Orkney nobleman who initiated building the cathedral of Kirkwall. This guy is a real saint and the malt is blessed!
    Not to be confused with Ragnvald a Swedish KIng mentioned in the Äldre Västgötalagens Kungakrönika of 1240.
    The 25 used to be a great standard over the years. I remember the blue wooden box with the golden hinges.
    The new wooden box is cool and the Whisky is as good as the older version. There are some batch variations but after all superb liquid.
    I gave it a 91 then here on WB.
    Looking back and having tasted it recently again - it has to be a 93 by now because I have not come across many better malts the past ten years.
    Nose is sublime. Taste is multidimensional with an endless finish. Ahhh the milk chocolate! Given the proper time - a stunner. I could only wish for 3% more Alc.
    A must as HP lover. Forget most of the current stuff!

    Highland Park 25yo. Double measure at the Waldorf, Aldwych. I would not usually order premium whisky in a hotel bar, not being on a hedge fund manager's salary, but the price of this was surprisingly low on my visit. Short review with Teresa. Aroma is oaky, aromatic wood, vanilla and toffee. Taste has loads of bourbon character, vanilla and toffee-honey, oak and soft smoke, embers. Nice and oaky and rich with soft smoke finishing it off - great balance. A nice Highland Park expression - like a suped-up richer version of their (current) 12yo. Enjoyable. 3.75/89

    Sophisticated and delicious whisky, whose profile, however, is somehow too standard for my taste. I just miss that special thing that could take me somewhere and make me fall in love. The nose becomes twice as complex with a few drops of water, but this seriously compromises the mouth experience, so you have to choose. I have quite comprehensive notes, but at least for now I prefer not to publish them and stick to my summary format.

    This dram takes work to fully appreciate but it gives hours of entertainment yet is more cerebral in appeal than visceral. I fully enjoyed its complexity and rate it highly but it does not rank in my top drams and does not give itself up willingly enough thus lessening the enjoyment. 89.
    • Nose
      A lot of layers to tease out in this one. 

      At first, a lot of older, wet, oak wood which calms down quite quickly to be followed by rich, warm, earthy spices (nutmeg & cinnamon primarily) and a damp and dusty dunnage warehouse.Then it sweetens up with mead and ripe red fruits like cherries. Floral, heathery characteristics then come through. Very light peat and a hint of spearmint and thyme. With water, the spices intensify and now includes tobacco notes. The mint now comes through stronger and a hint of sharper sulphite appears. This nose really takes a lot of time and patience as it comes in waves with very different notes over time. Love the complexity even if it is not the most inviting nose I have had.
    • Taste
      The taste neat is rich and drying with lots of tannins, cocoa powder and slight tobacco! Included with this is cinnamon, white pepper and cloves. Honey adds a little sweetness but the spices and later cherries overpower the honey.

      With water, the tannins free up a little and the red fruit and spearmint become more apparent.
    • Finish
      The finish is long but drying with lots of spices especially white pepper and cinnamon with a note of spearmint.

  108. GlenSikkes did not rate this whisky Connoisseur

    With a higher abv to preserve some of the highly complex notes, our 25 year old is matured using a very high proportion of first fill sherry casks, which not only impart a wonderfully rich, nutty spiciness but also an intensely dark and full bodied flavour profile: dried fruits, caramel, dark chocolate, golden toffee and slightly drier floral smoke all vie for your attention. The 25 years spent in oak have not diminished its personality and this whisky is also surprisingly sweet and vibrant, alongside its astonishing depth.

    ‘Best Spirit in the World’ 2013 International Spirits Journal, Paul Pacult.

    Tasting Notes by Highland Park
    • Nose
      Very rich, mature oak, chocolate; fudge.
    • Taste
      Full, rich burst of flavour, soft honey; nutty toffee.
    • Finish
      Rich, long and surprisingly sweet for its age.

  109. thijs100 scored this whisky 90 points Connoisseur

    This whisky deserves a high score. You can't really compare it to its younger 18 year old sibling, because there is so much more sherry influence here. What I can say is that it is a bold whisky, with big aromas and flavors, but with a nose that is also complex and has some nice subtle elements.
    • Nose
      Ah yes, lots of sherry influence. Big aromas. Dried red fruits, caramel, cherries, fudge and toffee. Also very spicy, mainly cinnamon. The smoke is very subtle, some charred oak is accompanied by damp wood and leather.
    • Taste
      A bit rubbery at first with a very oily mouthfeel. Smoke. Still some sherry, but the spices take over here. Ginger and cloves. Tastes like the alcohol content is much higher than 45,7%.
    • Finish
      A fiery finish, with mint, spices and pepper. Lingers for a long time.

  110. getz scored this whisky 89 points Expert Junior

    A late 2012 release of Highland Park`s fantastic 25 year old whisky. A mix of ex-sherry and bourbon cask matured whisky to balance honey with rich fruit, as well as a lick of the distilleries trademark Orcadian peatiness.
