On the mainland of the Orkney Islands off the northern tip of Scotland lies our most northerly distillery. The spring water on the island is said to come from mainland Scotland before seeping under the seabed to re-emerge in Orkney. One of two distilleries' on the islands, Highland Park is a great way to introduce your self to gently peated malt. This malt whisky will probably appeal to all whisky drinkers, such is its range.
Lightly smoked peat, a large chunk of a mixed fruit bowl, lightly sprinkled with sea salt.
