About the distillery

Highland Park distillery is a Scotch whisky distillery based in Kirkwall, Orkney. It is the most northerly whisky distillery in Scotland, half a mile farther north than that at Scapa distillery.

Highland Park has performed well at international spirit ratings competitions. Its 25-year single malt scotch, for example, received double gold medals at the 2007 and 2009 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

Other Information

This hand bottled Highland Park 50 Year Old was originally laid down back in 1964, bringing together just two sherry-seasoned Spanish hogshead casks whilst also introducing a small amount of the original 50 Year Old, first released in 2010, which was a 1960 vintage.

This special box also holds an attractive crystal decanter and a brown leather book providing insight into the development of the whisky.

One of only 274 bottles produced. This is bottle number 23.
