Description

A bottle of Highland Park 12 Year Old. This is the old presentation in a dumpy bottle, which we estimate was bottled in the 2000s.

The back label reads: 'The greatest all-rounder in the world of malt whisky' Michael Jackson The Malt Whisky Companion.

The history of Highland Park distillery is shrouded in mystery, with even the identity of its founder being disputed. It was founded on the remote island of Orkney in 1798, either by farmer David Robertson, or 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.
