Summary
Highland Park Cask Strength is a single malt Scotch whisky from Orkney, bottled at a higher strength than the distillery’s standard releases. It is generally known for balancing honeyed malt sweetness with gentle peat smoke, giving a fuller and more intense style.
For a novice drinker, expect a robust whisky that still aims for balance rather than heavy smokiness. Adding a little water can help open up its sweeter, spicier, and lightly smoky character.
