Half a century old nectar from the North.
Hours north of the center of the Scotch universe, at the edge of the world, there’s the Highland Park distillery, battered by every possible element, standing where Magnus Euson, son of the Vikings, started his Whisky bootlegging empire. More than two hundred years of history and tradition is now bottled in rich expressions of Scotch, revering the Norse mythology. Four craftsmen (a carpenter, a boat builder, a musician, and an artist) make sure the mythical character of the North is captured in the golden Spirit.
Now, behold this outstanding rarity, a ridiculously limited release (only 274 bottles) that was put to rest in 1964, which is basically a different dimension now. The Highland Park team discovered two Sherry-seasoned Spanish oak hogshead casks in 2008, snuggly tucked away in one of their warehouses. They tasted the contents and realized they found a real treasure.
After half a century, they married the Spirits and left them united for another eight years. The sumptuous liquid is presented in an elegant embossed bottle and a lovely oak box, both designed by Scottish craftsmen. The Whisky is precious and its natural ruby color hides sweet and fruity flavors with some signature peat smoke. This is the most extravagant king of the North.

Can Scotch go bad? Technically, an unopened bottle of Scotch can last forever. Air is the only true evil to Whisky; once the liquid is oxidized it is no longer immortal. After opening, as long as you store your Whisky in a cool, dry place, it will last another 5 years.
Is Scotch always Scottish? What do you think? Yes. The answer is yes.
Whisky distilling goes way back to 1494 when the first recorded batch was made by a posse of monks who acquired about 60 gallons of barley and decided to turn it into "aqua vitae". They created the first 1,500 bottles of Scotch in History.
Whisky or Whiskey? The spelling differs geographically. In Scotland, Japan, and some other parts of the world, distilleries usually spell it Whisky; in Ireland and the USA, they spell it Whiskey.
Single malt stands for around 10% of the Scotch market. This is a malt containing only one grain, legally required to be barley in Scotland, and made at a single distillery.
A blended Scotch is a combination of different malts from different distilleries. It is typically made from grain Whisky but does include malt Whisky to give it a more complex body.
A blended Scotch is a combination of different malts from different distilleries. It is typically made from grain Whisky but does include malt Whisky to give it a more complex body.
90% of all Scotch Whisky released in the market is a blend. That’s a hell of a lot.
