Highland Park 18 Year Old Viking Pride Island Whisky

The Highland founded in 1798 Park distillery is located in Kirkwall on the main island of the Scottish Orkney Islands. Thus the distillery is the northernmost in the world. The water comes from the Cattie Maggie sources of peat from the nearby Hobbister Moor. The rough sea climate helps that the Highland Park gets a special touch during his 18-year maturation process. Whiskey connoisseurs like to call the Highland Park 18 Years as the greatest all-rounder of the Scottish malt whiskeys. The powerful single malt has a clear, bright shimmering gold. Its rich flavor contains notes of sherry and smoky oak. The full-bodied taste is reminiscent of peat and honey. In the long finish the Highland Park 18 Years proves to be soft and complex. Incidentally, the Highland Park distillery is a much visited attraction of the Orkney Islands, held in the nearly daily tours.

Rated an average of 4.4 out of 5 by 282 reviewers and available from The Whisky Exchange for only £98.95, falling slightly short of liquid gold but this in a solid everyday single malt whisky.
