Sweetness Code
| Code | Description and Types |
|---|---|
| 0 | The very dry wine category includes many popular red wines (e.g. Bordeaux, Chianti, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir) and white wines (e.g. Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio). Sparkling wines labelled as ‘Brut’ will also be very dry on the palate. |
| 1 -2 | These wines have a hint of sweetness in the mouth and include many Pinot Gris, Riesling, Gewürztraminer as well as many California-style red blends. |
| 3 -7 | In this category, wines will have noticeable sweetness but not enough to be considered dessert wines. Many Moscato and German wines labelled with the terms “Spätlese or Kabinett” will be included. |
| 8 -10 | The very sweet category includes the famous dessert wines of the world like Sauternes, Tokaji Aszú, Port and Cream Sherries. |
The sweetness code is based on the amount of residual sugar left in the wine after the fermenting process is complete. The residual sugar level can range from 0 to more than 100 grams per litre! The chart below is the standard to which sweetness codes are assigned in BCLIQUOR.

Creating balanced, distinct whiskies takes hard work, skill, dedication, and time: harmonised complexity can't be rushed. Which is why Highland Park matured their robust and oily new make spirit for an extended time in a high proportion of refill casks along with first-fill sherry-seasoned European and American oak casks. The resulting flavour profile is an astonishingly complex harmony. There's that fudgy sweetness found in the more mature Highland Park expressions, but here it's paired with layers of aromatic spice and dark chocolate orange and floral peat notes. The result of 30 years maturation on Orkney's stormy, windswept landscape, this exceptional whisky was bottled with an ABV of 45.7%.
