A special release that celebrates spring and summer in Orkney, aged exclusively in American oak barrels, which produce a light natural color. Presented in a beautifully embossed green glass bottle, the serpent dragon design takes its inspiration from the great Norse sagas and embraces both the high sun of the summer solstice and the low sun of the winter solstice.

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.
