Highland Park Distillery was founded in 1798, making it the sixth oldest distillery in Scotland. Located on the Orkney Islands off the northern tip of Scotland. Although the remote Orkney Islands are at the same latitude as Stockholm, the climate is not so harsh. The thermometer rarely drops below zero and reaches 20°C in summer, an ideal climate for the production of whisky.The blending process allows precious time for our whisky to blend in the cask before bottling. This voluntarily slow and unhurried step, which has been long forgotten by many distilleries, is one of the five keys to whisky production. In today's fast-paced world, it is an ancient tradition that we proudly maintain to achieve the intense balance that characterises us.
