Highland Park

Highland Park, a distinguished name in the world of Scotch whisky, is renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship and rich heritage. Founded in 1798 in Orkney, Scotland, Highland Park is one of the northernmost distilleries in the country, benefiting from its unique geographic location. The distillery’s whiskies are celebrated for their harmonious balance of sweetness and smoky peat, a characteristic attributed to the use of local Orkney peat and sherry-seasoned oak casks.

One of Highland Park’s most notable features is its commitment to traditional methods. The whisky is still produced using old-fashioned methods such as hand malting, copper pot stills, and natural fermentation. This dedication to craftsmanship ensures a consistent and unique flavor profile, marked by notes of honeyed sweetness, vanilla, and a subtle smokiness.

Highland Park also prides itself on its Viking heritage, which is reflected in its branding and expressions. The distillery embraces its Norse roots, with the name Highland Park itself derived from the Old Norse "Park," meaning a piece of land. This Viking influence is evident in the rich, robust flavors and the use of ancient Norse symbols on the packaging.
