Named by the American whisky expert, F Paul Pacult, as ‘Best Spirit in the World’ (Spirit Journal), 18 Year Old Viking Pride is Highland Parks most highly-awarded single malt whisky, being honoured with both a Gold and an Ultimate Recommendation (with a score of 96) in the 2021 International Spirits Challenge.
Matured in a high proportion of first-fill sherry seasoned European and American oak casks, this superb 18 Year Old single malt pays tribute to Highlands 5 Keystones to production and presents a sophisticated medley of ripe cherries dusted with bittersweet cocoa, freshly harvested honeycomb and candied orange peel. There’s a whisper of Orkney’s salty seaspray in the aromatic peat smoke.
Award-winning whisky has been crafted at the Highland Park Distillery in Kirkwall, Orkney, since 1798. Age, experience and respect for tradition may define Highland Park whisky, but it’s Orkney that sets it apart. Something magic happens there and the result is the wild harmony of flavours found in our whisky.
