Highland Park 18 Year Old Viking Pride Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml
The Pride of Orkney, Eighteen Years in the Making
Highland Park 18 Year Old Viking Pride is widely regarded as one of the finest whiskies produced anywhere in the world — a statement that the world's most northerly distillery makes with quiet confidence and extraordinary consistency. Matured for 18 years in a combination of first-fill sherry-seasoned European oak and refill American oak casks, this expression achieves a balance of smoke, dried fruit, and honeyed richness that is virtually impossible to replicate. It has won more awards than almost any other whisky in its category, and every sip makes it easy to understand why.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Magnificent and complex — rich dark fruit, heather honey, and a beautifully integrated Orcadian peat smoke with layers of dark chocolate, dried orange peel, and warm baking spice
- Palate: Silky and profound — raisins, toffee, and a warming spice with a velvety sherry richness and a delicate, perfectly calibrated peat smoke that builds effortlessly across the palate
- Finish: Exceptionally long and dignified with lingering smoke, dried fruit, dark chocolate, and a warm, velvety oak fade that seems to last forever
