The Perfect Fifth Highland Park 31 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Highland Park 31 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is an exceptionally rare, single-cask release drawn from a 1987 vintage and bottled in 2019 at 47.1% ABV. With only 185 bottles produced, this Islands single malt represents over three decades of patient maturation, resulting in remarkable depth, balance, and complexity. The whisky opens with a vibrant, fruity and zesty nose accented by gentle spice, leading into a beautifully layered palate of soft malt, toasted notes, and evolving sweetness. As it unfolds, richer flavors of fudge and distinctive Orkney heather honey emerge, culminating in a long, intricate finish that rewards slow, contemplative sipping. A true collector’s piece, this release captures Highland Park’s signature harmony of elegance, maturity, and subtle power.
