Highland Park Cask Strength Heather is a single malt Scotch whisky from Orkney, a distillery known for balancing honeyed malt sweetness with gentle peat smoke. As a cask strength release, it is bottled at a higher alcohol level, so it can taste fuller and more intense than many standard whiskies.
For a novice drinker, expect a robust style that still aims for balance rather than heavy smoke. The profile is typically led by malt, sweetness, spice, and a lightly smoky edge, with heather character fitting naturally into the distillery’s well-known house style.
