Highland Park Valfather Single Malt Whisky, 70 cl Whisky 5010314308988

Highland Park’s final bottling in its Viking Legend releases represents the Norse God, Odin who was the God of wisdom, death and magic. The whisky itself we are told is the peatiest of the three expressions with complex and yet light touches of apple, sweet spices and characteristic peaty smoke.

Description

It was Magnus Eunson who founded Highland Park, back in 1798. Much is made of his Viking heritage around the distillery and there is little doubt that, being based on Orkney some 16km north of the Scottish mainland, that the climate is certainly pretty wild being surrounded by stormy seas. Despite its remoteness though, the temperature is relatively steady across the year (rarely varying out of between 2 and 16 degrees) which is perfect for maturing whisky.

Rob Roy Cocktail Recipe

If there was ever a cocktail to make you feel the glitz and glamour of the history and chic society of New York, it's ordering a Rob Roy. The Rob Roy is a riff on a Manhattan, with their only difference being the base liquor. A Rob Roy is made using blended Scotch while a Manhattan is made with Rye. As such, the cocktail is malty and smooth, with a bit of spice on the finishing end.
