Highland Park 50 Years GOLD is a whiskey that has quite a story to tell. A long, quiet and calm history, which has fertile ground in the mild temperate climate of Orkney, it has contributed to balance and the desire for harmony.

Gordon Motion, Highland Park's Master Whiskey Maker, selected nine casks that were first filled in 1968 and brought together in 2008. They were re-racked in first-fill sherry seasoned oak casks and allowed to mature for a further 12 years. Finally in 2020, the finished whiskey was bottled, 50 years old.

If you are lucky enough to taste this extraordinary whisky, you will find delicate aromas of ripe black cherries, sweet Muscovado sugar, peaches and rich dark chocolate, new leather and soft dry smoke. A complex and vibrant intensity of flavor follows with exotic spices, candied orange peel, toasted oak and ripe apricots delivering a deliciously rich, fragrant sweetness. Dry spices and notes of dark espresso linger on the finish, shrouded in aromatic dry smoke.

Each bottle is individually numbered and personally signed by Gordon Motion, Master Whiskey Maker.
