Highland Park Vintage 1973

Cask Number.11167
Lot #1490992
FINISH DATE
20 April 2026
Part of a two cask experiment undertaken by Highland Park. This bottling forms one stage of a fascinating journey into the mysterious wonders of malt whisky. In October 1973, two oak sherry casks were filled with new make spirit. Both casks were then left undisturbed - just a few feet apart in the same Highland Park warehouse until being bottled on the 22nd February 2001. Cask 11167 has a light gold colour; a bouquet of leather and oak. a palate with rich, very peaty, mellow oak flavours and a rich, long finish. The other cask (11151) is equally enjoyable but very dramatically different.
Highland Park

The Macallan might be the jewel in the crown of Edrington, but a close second is Highland Park, especially after the brand investment, it has received in recent times. Established in 1798 by David Robertson on the outskirts on Kirkwall on Orkney, history suggests the site was used for illicit distillery way before this official date. In a landscape shaped by nature, ravaged by Vikings and the tides of war, Highland Park manages to bring everything together. A historical whisky that is universally appreciated, offering a little bit of something and famously called an ‘all rounder’, from locally sourced peat to a welcoming rugged characteristic. Highland Park doesn’t need the branding to stand out from the crowd. An increasingly varied core range can seem bewildering to someone new, so start with the 18 year old and being your voyage.
