Highland Park 1998 Vintage 40%
 With
an emphasis on first-fill American oak
Sherry casks in its maturation, this
1998 vintage reveals the smoky side of
Highland Park, attributable to the
distinctively aromatic peat from
Hobbister Moor. The yellow accent of the
packaging is inspired by the Orkney sun
which, at midsummer, never sets.
This Global Travel Retail exclusive
vintage single malt was distilled in
1998 and bottled 2010 at of 40% ABV and has an RRP
of £41 (1 litre bottle). It will be
available from April/May 2010.
