Viking honour is the heart and soul of Highland Park, sharing their pride, integrity and fierce independence. Highland Park is produced on the remote island of Orkney, and while this is part of Scotland, it originally belonged to a vast Viking kingdom. Highland Park 12 Year Old is a single malt Scotch Whisky and the core expression of the illustrious Highland Park range, which to this day, distill their award-winning whisky to the same standards introduced in 1798 by the founder, Magnus Eunson, a direct descendant of the early Viking settlers.
Highland Park 12 Year Old is an intensely balanced single malt, a perfect harmony of aromatic smoky peat and the flavours of sweet heather honey and rich fruit cake. Smooth, full and rounded, it's a whisky that truly stands apart. Noted Scottish Whisky writer, Michael Jackson, once touted this expression as 'the greatest all-rounder in the world of malt whisky.'
