A poetic and glacial homage to myths.
On one of the seventy islands of Orkney, north from Scotland Mainland, a son of Vikings started making and bootlegging Whisky in 1798 – when Napoleon was on his European tour. Magnus Eunson was his name and where his business stood is now a Vikingesque distillery named Highland Park. A team of four artistic fellas creates elite and badass Whiskies with grand tales only Norse mythology can offer.
An arctic blue bottle sitting in a mountain-like wooden cradle holds an Asgardian elixir (it’s Scotch, btw) that reminds us slightly of Freya. It was created as a celebration of Nilfheim, the frosty birthplace of all the rivers. Spirit that matured for 17 years in ex-Bourbon barrels (only 30 thousand bottles made) is a glacial wonder with heaps of smoke and fruity flavors hiding in the icy depths.
