VIKING HONOUR is the very heart and soul of Highland Park.
A single malt in perfect harmony between aromatic smoky peat, sweet heather honey and rich fruit cake.
VIKING HONOUR reflects the unique culture of the remote Orkney Islands, home of Highland Park.
Orkney is part of Scotland, but the islands originally belonged to the far-reaching dominion of the Vikings. At Highland Park, you also pay tribute to the spirit of the Viking ancestors - their pride, integrity and independence.
And the award-winning whiskey is still distilled based on exactly the same principles that Highland Park's founder (and Viking descendant) Magnus Eunson introduced in 1798.

Highland Park 12 years is a Scotch whiskey from the island of Orkney. It is made from malted barley malt and cold, clear water from Cattie Maggie's well, which is known for its high quality. The whiskey is distilled in copper stills and aged in ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks for at least 12 years.
The result is a whiskey with a deep, smoky flavor and notes of dried fruit, honey and sweetness. It has a soft and round mouthfeel and a long-lasting finish with a gentle, smoky aftertaste.
