Why Liquor Geeks recommends it

This is a single malt from Highland Park Distillery on Scotland's Orkney Islands. It is aged 12 years in oak, with sherry and American oak shaping its character. What sets it apart on the shelf is balance. Heather-honey sweetness leads, aromatic peat smoke follows, and neither one shouts over the other. On the palate, honey and ripe orchard fruit give way to gentle smoke, dried fruit and cinnamon, and the finish is long and warm with a last whisper of oak. That makes it a natural first step for anyone curious about peated Scotch but wary of heavy smoke. Seasoned drinkers will appreciate how much it rewards a few drops of water. Bottled at 43% ABV (86 proof), it is comfortable neat or over a single ice cube. It is also sturdy enough to bring a smoky edge to an Old Fashioned or a Whisky Sour. We carry it because it is a dependable reference point for the Islands style and a bottle that earns its place on any home bar.

Pairs well with

  • Smoked salmon on rye — The whisky's gentle peat smoke echoes the fish, while its honey sweetness softens the salt.
  • Dark chocolate with orange — The orange peel, dried fruit and cinnamon notes in the whisky lock neatly into bittersweet chocolate and citrus.
  • Fireside nightcap after dinner — Its long, warm finish of smoky sweetness and oak is made for a slow final pour of the evening.

Questions about this bottle

How smoky is Highland Park 12?

The smoke is present but measured. Aromatic peat smoke sits alongside heather-honey sweetness on the nose. Smoky nuances build on the mid-palate with dried fruit and cinnamon, so the overall impression is sweet and smoky in balance rather than heavily peated.

Where is this whisky made?

It is made by Highland Park Distillery on the Orkney Islands, part of Scotland's Islands whisky region. The producer ties the whisky's character to Orkney's rugged landscape and Viking heritage.

What is it aged in, and how strong is it?

It is a malted barley single malt aged 12 years in oak, with sherry and American oak noted in its cask profile. It is bottled at 43% ABV (86 proof) in a 750 ml bottle.

What is the best way to drink it?

Enjoy it neat or with a single ice cube to appreciate its depth. A few drops of water can open up the aroma and soften the palate. It also works as a base for cocktails, adding a smoky twist to an Old Fashioned or a Whisky Sour.
