Highland Park Valfather Single Malt Whisky, 70 cl

Details

Highland Parks final bottling in its Viking Legend releases represents the Norse God, Odin who was the God of wisdom, death and magic. The whisky itself we are told is the peatiest of the three expressions with complex and yet light touches of apple, sweet spices and characteristic peaty smoke.

Product Description

It was Magnus Eunson who founded Highland Park, back in 1798. Much is made of his Viking heritage around the distillery and there is little doubt that, being based on Orkney some 16km north of the Scottish mainland, that the climate is certainly pretty wild being surrounded by stormy seas. Despite its remoteness though, the temperature is relatively steady across the year (rarely varying out of between 2 and 16 degrees) which is perfect for maturing whisky.

Tasting Notes

Luscious peat with hints of citrus
