Tasting Notes
Highland Park's Valknut single malt whisky offers a captivating experience for peat enthusiasts. The nose greets you with a delightful blend of warming peat smoke mingling harmoniously with vanilla sweetness, thyme honey, and the earthy aroma of sandalwood. On the palate, toasted barley and fennel seed flavors dance alongside a kick of cinnamon spice. The finish lingers with notes of flamed orange peel, a subtle hint of BBQ char, gingerbread, and nutmeg, leaving a delightfully smoky aftertaste. Crafted with a touch of locally grown Tartan barley and matured predominantly in American oak sherry seasoned casks, this slightly peatier expression from Highland Park showcases the distillery's expertise in balancing smoky and sweet flavors, resulting in a unique and enjoyable dram for peat lovers seeking a delightful twist on the classic Highland Park style.
