Highland Park 25 Year Old (2023 Release, 46%)
The Highland Park 25 Year Old (2023 Release) is a seriously considered, cask-led edition built from 22 casks filled between 1995 and 1998. The make-up leans confidently into Highland Park’s signature balance of honeyed richness, gentle spice, and softly smoky complexity, with a mix of first-fill sherry-seasoned European and American oak alongside refill hogsheads and a refill butt to keep everything composed rather than overpowered.
This is the kind of bottle that speaks to collectors and long-time Highland Park fans: mature, layered, and unhurried at 46% ABV. Expect a profile that moves from nutty, chocolatey warmth and peppery spice into deeper heather-honey sweetness, dried fruits, toasted oak, and a late lift of eucalyptus and mint on the finish.
