Highland Park launches Heathrow-exclusive whisky

Edrington has created a single cask expression of Highland Park Scotch whisky exclusively for World Duty Free at Heathrow Airport in London.

Only 642 bottles of the Highland Park single malt have been created, available at World of Whiskies stores across all four Heathrow terminals from today (20 February).

Highland Park Single Cask for World of Whiskies at Heathrow was matured in a mix of first-fill American oak and Sherry puncheon casks for 12 years.

Bottled at a cask strength of 64.4% ABV, the whisky is said to have notes of vanilla, almonds and smoke on the nose, leading to flavours of marzipan, lemon peel and vanilla on the palate.

Highland Park Single Cask for World of Whiskies at Heathrow will retail for £105 (US$135) per bottle.

Jeremy Speirs, managing director EMEA travel retail, Edrington, said: “Highland Park continues to innovate and excite customers with its single cask range.

“This limited edition is available only at Heathrow, World of Whiskies. It offers our valued customers the opportunity to own a unique cask strength bottling of Highland Park – perfectly balanced, it will not disappoint.”
