Highland Park Valknut

Highland Park

Ice Edition

17 Year Old

Tasting Note: 

Nose:    Vivid aromas of cool, fresh pineapple and ripe mango sorbet come to life - in this celebration of glacial character. Silvery shards of smoke give way to the frosty kick of root ginger.

Palate:  Like the Ice Giants themselves, the palate is powerful yet mellifluous. In true Highland Park style, the combination of an silvery, misty peat smoke is inter-twined with pearlescent vanilla seeds and overtones of molten orris root .

Finish:   Beautifully balanced, the creamy, rich, oily finish snowballs into long lingering woodiness and dry, feverish spices, providing a scintillating and harmonious whisky to savour.

A perfect expression of harmony, complexity and refinement, VIKING PRIDE combines honey sweetness with delicious hints of cherries wrapped in chocolate, and subtle top notes of aromatic peat smoke.

Highland Park

30 Year Old 

Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Matured in sherry seasoned American oak casks, THE LIGHT is a distinctive and vibrant whisky with a delicious sweetness.

This special release of 28,000 bottles shares the story of the noble Viking warriors who are our ancestors, of our contrasting island seasons and of the intense balance of our whisky.

It is a celebration of spring and summer on Orkney; a time to emerge from our winter’s hibernation, renewed and refreshed with a spring in our step, ready to embrace the warm bright days of summer. Presented in a beautifully embossed green glass bottle, the serpent dragon design takes its inspiration from the great Norse sagas and embraces both the high sun of the summer solstice and the low sun of the winter solstice – the polar opposites of our island seasons – while the runic writing reflects the ancient carvings of our Viking ancestors which can still be seen today, here on Orkney.

A uniquely smooth , balanced single malt, with a rich full flavour and a gentle smoky finish.

Tasting Notes

Colour: 100% refill Port wine seasoned casks result in a natural colour, resplendent glowing flames.
Nose: Vibrant and intense aromas of ruby red fruits and warm vanilla complement the fiery bitter sweetness of cinnamon bark and the smouldering richness of devilishly dark chocolate.
Palate: The palate bristles of light smoke with striking zesty dried peel and temperate vanilla flavour. Intoxicating spices and the sharpness of damsons entice and enchant your taste buds.
Finish: Intensely balanced, the long, lingering sweet finish magnifies into a sizzling fruity spiciness, providing a bewitching and standout whisky to enjoy.
