✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the wind-swept Orkney Islands, Highland Park is one of Scotland's most remote and historic distilleries, founded in 1798 by the legendary smuggler-turned-preacher Magnus Eunson. The 'Full Volume' expression celebrates the artistry of the whisky maker, drawing a parallel to music production where different frequencies are balanced to create a harmonious track. Unlike Highland Park's traditional sherry-seasoned cask maturation, Full Volume was matured exclusively in 100% first-fill bourbon casks. This unique aging process allows the distillery's signature aromatic, heather-rich peat smoke—born from Orkney's treeless, maritime landscape—to intertwine beautifully with intense notes of creamy vanilla, sweet citrus, and warm spices, offering a vibrant and beautifully balanced sensory experience.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Highland Park blev grundlagt i 1798 i Kirkwall på det afsidesliggende Orkney-øhav og er et af Skotlands mest traditionsrige og nordligst beliggende single malt-destillerier. Destilleriet, som i dag er ejet af Edrington Group, værner kompromisløst om det klassiske whiskyhåndværk; her praktiserer man fortsat traditionel gulvmaltning med håndkraft og høster tæt, lyngmættet tørv fra den nærliggende Hobbister Moor. Modningen foregår primært på udsøgte sherrytilsmagte egetræsfade i Orkneys kølige, vindblæste kystklima. Dette enestående samspil mellem terroir og håndværk skaber Highland Parks verdensberømte signaturstil, som udmærker sig ved en elegant aromatisk tørverøg, en cremet sødme af lynghonning og dybe, komplekse krydderitoner.
