The expression that started it all for Highland Park. First introduced in 1979, the 12 year old is at the very heart of their core range and demonstrates rich, well balanced malty tones, with the subtle floral smoke which makes Highland Park such a distinctive single malt whisky.
Made from the best barley malted over peat fires, merged with the unique spring waters of the island, and aged in casks for a minimum of twelve years that shape its rare and very distinctive character. Now labeled as ‘Viking Honour’
