A bottle of Highland Park 1967 vintage single malt Scotch whisky, matured for 36 years and bottled at 49.7% ABV from a single cask.
This was bottled from cask number 10252.
The history of Highland Park distillery is shrouded in mystery. It was built on the remote island of Orkney in 1798 by farmer David Robertson, on the site of an old bothy of the priest turned whisky smuggler Magnus Eunson.
The first single malts were released in the 1970s and the distillery has become known for its use of Orcadian peat to dry the barley (lighter than mainland or Islay peat) and sherry casks for maturation. Recent years have seen Highland Park pay homage to its island heritage, with releases named after local landmarks and Norse gods.
