Highland Park 17, ‘Full Volume’, Single Malt Scotch Whisky (Special)

700 ml, 47.2% abv, Scotland (Island)

For musicians, amps and equalisers maintain critical balance at high volume by fine-tuning musical frequencies – at Highland Park, their Master Whisky Maker, Gordon Motion, does a similar job.

Full Volume was created using 100% ex-bourbon casks rather than our traditional sherry-seasoned ones. During 1999, a combination of 481 casks – 200 litre barrels and 250 litre hogsheads – were filled at strengths of between 63.6% and 63.7%. The whisky was filtered at just over 4^oC and delivers flavours of creamy vanilla and sweet citrus fruits from the bourbon casks, balanced by Highland Park’s characteristic aromatic smokiness. Distilled 1999, bottled in 2017.
