The Highland Park distillery is located on the Orkney Islands at the northernmost point of Scotland. Since its founding in 1798, it has maintained an ultimate pursuit of quality. The Orkney Islands were ruled by Viking culture for centuries, and this fierce, uncompromising spirit is deeply ingrained in the distillery's soul.
Unlike other Scottish regions, Orkney peat contains a high proportion of heather. When this peat is used to kiln the malt, it imparts a unique smoky character with floral honey aromas. Highland Park 12 Years Old is matured in expensive sherry seasoned oak casks, allowing the liquid to slowly develop a deep and elegant complexity under the constant cool sea breezes of Orkney.
This 'Viking Soul' whisky has won numerous gold medals in international competitions and is praised by critics as the perfect all-rounder among single malts, showcasing extraordinary taste whether enjoyed neat, on ice, or as a gift.
