Highland Park 1977 Signatory Vintage – Straight From the Cask

A Rare Orkney Gem: Highland Park 1977 – 25 Years of Sherry-Cask Perfection

Distilled in 1977 and bottled in 2002, this Highland Park 25 Year Old is a true treasure from the Straight From the Cask range by Signatory Vintage, one of Scotland’s most respected independent bottlers. Drawn from a single sherry butt (#3794) and bottled at cask strength, it represents the pure, unfiltered essence of Highland Park’s island character.

This exclusive release was bottled for La Maison du Whisky, one of France’s leading whisky houses, with only 676 bottles ever produced. Each bottle captures the wild beauty of Orkney — the island’s salty winds, heather-covered hills, and centuries of Norse heritage.

Expect a deep amber hue and a rich, full-bodied profile. The nose opens with dark fruits, honeyed malt, and layers of polished oak, while the palate reveals raisins, spiced toffee, and gentle peat smoke. The finish is long, warming, and elegant, perfectly balancing sweetness and smoke.

This 1977 vintage isn’t just a whisky — it’s a piece of Highland Park history, beautifully matured and meticulously bottled by Signatory. A collector’s dream and a connoisseur’s delight, this bottle stands as a testament to the craftsmanship and time-honored tradition of Scotland’s northernmost distillery.
