The Highland Park distillery is located on the Orkney Islands at the far north of Scotland. Since its founding in 1798, it has maintained a steadfast commitment to quality. Orkney was under Viking rule for centuries, and this resilient spirit is deeply ingrained in the distillerys soul.
Unlike other Scottish regions, Orkneys peat contains a high proportion of heather. When used to kiln the malt, it imparts a unique honey-sweet smokiness. Highland Park 12 is aged in expensive sherry seasoned oak casks, allowing the liquid to develop deep complexity under the constant, cool sea breezes of Orkney.
This Viking Honour whisky has won numerous gold medals in international competitions and is praised by critics as the perfect all-rounder of single malts, making it an exceptional choice for neat sipping or gifting.
