"The third release of Highland Park's Cask Strength single malt is a complex whisky, made with a higher-than-normal proportion of Orkney peated malt, matured in a combination of three different types of casks - first-fill European and American oak sherry casks, and a smaller number of refill casks.

About Highland Park distillery
The distillery was founded in 1798, presumably by Magnus Eunson.[2] The name of this whisky does not refer to the area of Scotland known as The Highlands, but rather to the fact that the distillery was founded on an area called 'High Park' distinguished from a lower area nearby.
Within the malthouse at Highland Park Distillery.

Highland Park is one of the few distilleries to malt its own barley, using locally cut peat from Hobbister Moor. The peat is then mixed with heather before being used as fuel. The malt is peated to a level of 20 parts per million phenol and then mixed with unpeated malt produced on the Scottish mainland.

In 1984, Highland Park was the only whisky ever to have scored a rating of 100% by the regular tasting team of The Scotsman, a national newspaper of Scotland. Whisky reviewer Michael Jackson has called it "The greatest all-rounder in the world of malt whisky.
