For this unique whisky, the master whisky maker took a slightly different approach. Working with the Senior Brand Ambassador, Martin Markvardsen, he decided to combine 10 year old sherry seasoned American oak casks together with 10 year old European oak casks, and to just lightly filter the whisky prior to bottling. This intensified the classic smoky sweetness that is Highland Park’s trademark. The resulting single malt whisky is full-bodied and beautifully balanced with intense vanilla and sherry notes with ripe fruit layers and a touch of salty ocean spray. First released in Sweden in 2013, it was bottled at its marrying strength of 46% ABV.
