Отзывы описывают лёгкий, фруктовый и торфяной солод с Оркни, часто отмечая хорошее соотношение цены и качества и морские/минеральные ноты. Мнения о сложности расходятся: часть считает его простым, но приятным, часть — слишком разбавленным.
развернуть подробно
В отзывах виски последовательно описывается как лёгкий, фруктовый и торфяной солод с Оркни, с нотами ванили, тропических фруктов, морской соли, йода, минералов и цитрусовых. Несколько отзывов подчёркивают его доступность и хорошее соотношение цены и качества, а также лёгкость в питье, при которой крепость 48% не ощущается. Отмечается, что напиток «о духе, а не о бочке», с минимальным влиянием бочки и доминированием дистиллята; некоторые находят его освежающим на фоне «первоналивных» виски. Нос часто описывают как свежий и фруктовый с ванилью и прибрежными нотами, вкус — маслянистый, солёный и прибрежный, с фруктовой сладостью на заднем плане, а финиш — от среднего до длинного, иногда с лёгкой горечью или сухостью.
Вместе с тем оценки и впечатления расходятся. Часть отзывов считает виски простым, одномерным и недолгим, с коротким или быстро исчезающим финишем; один отзыв прямо называет его разбавленным и «пустым», без торфа и дыма. Другие, хвалят баланс, мягкость, деликатность и узнаваемый характер Хайленд Парк, отмечая цветочные, травянистые, солодовые и пряные оттенки, а также ноты дыма, пепла и кожи. Несколько отзывов описывают его как нетипичный, «обнажённый» или скромный Хайленд Парк, который может понравиться тем, кто предпочитает минеральную сторону и не любит излишнюю торфяность.

A surprisingly light, fruity and peaty mistery malt from Orkney. On the nose is vanilla, tropical fruits. Very easy to drink for me..an excellent price / value ratio. Highly recommended! Dont't think, just have a nother dram. You can't feel the 48% abv.

Perfect value for money if you like the mineral side of Highland Park. This is all about spirit and no cask influence, Serge would love it ;)

I liked it but wouldn't buy a bottle of it. There's not much to discover but a bit of sweetness, sea salt and maritime notes combined with fruity notes. Doesn't stay very long and fades to nothing. A nice dram to drink after an eventfull day just to enjoy without thinking too much about it.

Highland Park - re-racked prior to vatting. In the words of PC Plod - nothing to taste here - move on.

Most HP’s I’ve had before where way more outspoken, bold and a little more ‘rough’. This one however is a good example of a Highland Park being a good and modest son in law. A beautiful Scotch mist appears already with some time in the glass, without water. It turns even more cloudy with a wee drop.

Elixir Distillers has released some interesting and affordable bottles in their "Parcel No series" over the recent years. In these price-up driven days, this series is very welcome.

Odd finish. Salty notes again with mild spices. Medium long. Quite one dimensional in general; ok given the price.

Very pale, the lightest yellow - and with water it clouds considerably to reflect the sky. This is all about spirit and zero cask. No wonder HP resort to excessive cask finishes and maximum marketing bullshit to make it into something they can sell. No peat, no smoke. REALLY there is nothing. EID should know better. Dont waste your money.
RobbievdBExpert Senior8409 jul 2020 9:58 pm
A butt naked Highland Park. Indeed, this is all about the distillate and very refreshing whisky between all the first fill violence. It’s straightforward in on vanilla, minerals, wet stones, coastal aromas and a nice layer of gentle peat. Not overly complex but very solid at what it promises and delivers.

In the evening, I walked to the Highland Park, and the sea breeze was cold and tidal. The reefs of the beach are glistened with ore, and countless high and low tides have left circles of salt and frost. The bonfire in the distance was misty, and there were children singing and dancing around, with loud voices. Twist a few thorn fruits from the tree at will, half-life sweetened, and some vanilla flavor.
Tom na GruagaichConnoisseur8509 mar 2023 3:58 pm
Blind tasting: sweet, gelatinous, mineral and extremely citrusy, with a little smoke. A fine, somewhat atypical Highland Park.

Floral, fruits, salt, grass, peaty smoke (comes with taste) with soft citric zest and caramel cut.

Very balanced nose, on mountain honey, spicy bush, lemon pulp, vanilla milk. A very smooth and flirtatious smoke rises after a while. Sea freshness. The Highland Park Distillery is immediately and totally recognizable. It is soft, subtle, delicate and at the same time very costal. Sea breeze, a few bits of foam, but the sea is calm today. Sea salt. The palate echoes the fragrances perceived. Sea water, waves, spray, on a beautiful lemony and vanilla bed, you can smell the malted barley too, it's quite cereal. It's warm, woody, it's like by the fireside, under a blanket. Very few spices, just enough. Ginger, cumin, nutmeg, clove. Nice finish, long, heather, chicory, chocolate mousse, rich and humid earth, quite violent but without overdoing it, it's cozy towards the end. Sponge cake, cola. Candied citrus fruits. I must admit that it is a wonder. I found it very iodized as I like, but at the same time subtle, not aggressive like the Talisker or the Caol Ila, two distilleries that I love by the way. https://ilikesky2020.blogspot.com/2022/11/an-orkney-distillery-2006-single-malts.html
