The Highland Park 16 Years Old Sea of Orkney Single Malt Scotch Whisky 44.5% ABV 0.7 l + GB is a ‘Travel Exclusive’ bottling designed specifically for the travel retail market, forming part of a special series that celebrates the elements and the natural beauty of the Orkney Islands. This edition is dedicated to the powerful, rugged sea that surrounds the archipelago and significantly shapes the character of the region. The single malt was matured in a balanced combination of first-fill sherry-seasoned American oak casks and complementary refill casks, giving it a harmonious blend of fruity, spicy and slightly smoky notes. The maritime location, the cool climate and the traditional use of heather peat lend this whisky its distinctive style, which displays both elegance and depth.


Having matured for 16 years, the Sea of Orkney is both expressive and smooth. Spicy warmth, dried apricots and figs meet subtle vanilla, nutmeg, bittersweet cocoa notes and a gentle hint of heather peat smoke. The elegant, sweet and nutty finish, with notes of crushed almonds and brown sugar, creates a long-lasting, multi-layered overall impression. The high-quality gift box emphasises the exclusivity of this edition, which impressively reflects the natural identity of Orkney and offers an authentic insight into Highland Park’s art of cask-maturation.
