Highland Park The Dark

Highland Park The Dark is a limited NAS expression from the Orkney distillery — a cask strength expression that maximises the first-fill sherry cask influence in Highland Park’s production, presenting the most intensely dark, richly sherried, and deeply flavoured version of the distillery’s character available outside the premium age-stated releases.

The Dark is the counterpart to The Light expression in Highland Park’s experimental range — where The Light minimises sherry cask influence, The Dark maximises it, presenting the full intensity of what first-fill sherry cask maturation produces from Highland Park’s heather-peated spirit at cask strength.
