A harmonious Scottish gem: Highland Park 10 Year Old Viking Scar
A harmonious journey to the Orkney Islands
Highland Park 10 Year Old Viking Scar is a fabulous introduction to the world-renowned universe of Highland Park. Distilled at the historic Highland Park Distillery in Kirkwall, Orkney, where they have been making award-winning whiskies since 1798, this single malt combines the strength of nature with the soft elegance of classic Scottish craftsmanship.
The taste – aromatic, complex and inviting
The whisky is aged in carefully selected European and American sherry oak casks. This gives a vibrant and balanced experience, where notes of fresh citrus fruits and creamy vanilla merge in perfect harmony. The light, peaty sweetness and subtle smoke lead thoughts to heather-clad hills and cold sea air. You will also catch a hint of peppery spices that emphasize the depth.
Serving and use
Highland Park 10 is best enjoyed at room temperature and served in a proper whisky glass, where the aromas can really come into their own. It is excellent for both fireside chats and food pairings – try it with bacon-wrapped scallops, for example, or as a flavour enhancer in an elegant Old Fashioned.
