Highland Park's Quercus, the third release in their esteemed "The Keystones Series," exemplifies the dedication to traditional craftsmanship that the distillery has upheld for over 220 years. This exquisite bottling is named after the species of oak, Quercus, utilized in their cask-making process. Bottled in 2017, this limited edition release comprises only 1200 bottles, each containing a whisky matured in 1st Fill Sherry seasoned European oak casks. These casks journey to Jerez, Spain, to be filled with sherry before returning to the Highland Park distillery, imparting a rich fruitcake flavor and a natural dark golden hue to the whisky. The peat used in the malting process is sourced from Hobbister Moor, and the floor maltings are hand-turned, making Highland Park one of the last distilleries in Scotland to uphold this traditional practice. The whisky matures on Orkney, off the North coast of Scotland, where the casks undergo a unique harmonization process that enhances the smoothness of the final product. Highland Park's Quercus showcases rich flavors and vibrant colors derived from its meticulous production process, including the use of 1st Fill Sherry seasoned European oak casks, hand-turned floor maltings, and cool Orkney maturation. This blend of tradition and excellence results in a whisky that stands out as a true testament to the distillery's storied heritage.
