The Highland Park Distillery, located on the main island of the rugged Orkney Islands, is said to date back to the 18th century. In any case, it is certain that in 1826 the distillery was granted a license to make single malt whisky. Highland Park (HP) has long been known for its own bottlings, especially because of its own character with notes of heather and a hint of peat smoke. HP is one of the few distilleries with its own malting floor and 'in house' cask storage. In 2017, HP released a new series of standard bottlings, with names that recall the Viking past of the Orkneys.
This 10-year-old 'Viking Scars' is a bottling in the new core series of Highland Park. The distillery profile is recognizable: a hint of smoke, heather and honey and subtle sherry tones. At around 40%, this is an easy drinkable single malt.
For those who are not familiar with Highland Park, or with single malt whisky in general, this 12-year-old Viking Honor is a nice introduction. This bottling covers the entire HP profile, with subtle peat smoke and sherry notes, heather, honey and vanilla
Signatory Vintage also released special bottlings twenty years ago. In 2003, for example, there was this 10-year-old Highland Park single malt whisky. The Orkney malt matured in a refill sherry cask and was bottled in 'dumpy' bottles at 59.2%.
With the WhiskySponge bottlings, we have a lot of interesting offers again! Like this Orkney Sponge, for example: a 23-year-old Highland Park single malt whisky. The malt matured in a refill hogshead, a bourbon cask. Bottled at cask strength (57%).
This is a young Highland Park, bottled by Gordon & MacPhail in 2015 from three first-fill bourbon casks at 57.9% cask strength. The cask influence is obvious with notes of vanilla and honey. The single malt whisky is remarkably modest in its peat smoke.
With this 21 Year Old November 2019 Release, Orkney distillery Highland Park introduced in 2019 another exceptional bottling of its single malt whisky. The malt matured for two decades in a select combination of sherry and bourbon casks. (46%)
In 2010, this 2nd edition in Highland Park's Inga Saga Trilogy was highly anticipated. The single malt whisky from the Orkneys is 12 years old and 55% strong. With intense notes of dried fruit, honey, cinnamon, and hints of exotic fruit and aromatic smoke
We're not going to hide it: this Orkney (HP) from Signatory is, of course, a Highland Park single malt whisky. And we're also not going to hide the fact that we're offering this 14-year-old, Oloroso and bourbon-matured malt for a great price! (57.1%)
By putting HP in brackets on the label after 'Orkney 18', bottler Signatory Vintage gives a clear hint from which distillery this single malt whisky comes. The whisky from the Orkneys matured for 18 years in a 1st-fill Oloroso sherry cask. (55.8%)
