Highland Park The Dark 17 Year Old is a richly sherried, subtly smoky single malt from Orkney. It pours a deep amber and delivers a nose of dried fruits, cocoa, orange zest, and vanilla. On the palate you’ll find a velvety mix of toffee, dark chocolate, spice, and a touch of oak, with a warming, lingering finish that carries quiet smoke.
