KING CHRISTIAN I No.8
Highland Park Christian I 70cl, 46.8% ABV
Released in 2016, King Christian 1 is a rare limited edition within The Warrior Series, a collection of single malts created for Duty-Free to both introduce a key figure from Orkneyâs Viking history, and to demonstrate the impact of cask type on our whiskyâs flavour, which is immense.
Christian I was King of Norway, Denmark, Sweden (1448-1481)
This Highland Park bottling celebrates King Christian I of Denmark and his important role in the Orkney Islands becoming part of Scotland in 1468. He was a clever and cosmopolitan sovereign who managed to unite Denmark, Norway and Sweden, a region that at the time, included the Orkney Islands where our world renowned distillery has been based since 1798.
One of the rarest bottles of the Highland Park range in modern times, only 300 bottles of the King Christian Volume 1 have been released for the travel retail market. It was released in Feb of 2016 as part of the Warrior series.
Matured in a combination of Refill Butts and Hogsheads of exceptional age and character, this whisky, like its namesake king, is the embodiment of unity.
This expression has been matured in both refill butts and hogsheads of “exceptional age”.
THORFINN
Highland Park Thorfinn: 70cl 45.1% ABV
Released in 2013, Thorfinn is part of The Warrior Series, a collection of single malts created for Duty-Free to both introduce a key figure from Orkney’s Viking history and to demonstrate the impact of cask type on our whiskyâs flavour, which is immense.
Thorfinn is the pinnacle of this selection. Thorfinn, aka Thorfinn the Mighty (b. 1009-d.1065) is still highly revered to this day in Orkney. He took over the earl-ship from his brother Einar after he was killed by Thorfinn’s foster-father. He wore a gilded gold helmet and this symbol is prominently placed on this bottling.
Thorfinn was a man of much power and influence, who at one stage controlled the whole of the Orkney Islands. The Orkneyinga Saga described him as a great chief, the tallest and strongest of men whose remains are buried in St Magnus Cathedral on Orkney.
Colour: A fairly full deep reddy copper with lighter gold tones running through.
Nose: A fuller dunnage / old oak cask nose going on here, with just a touch of lactic acid which tales off thankfully after a few moments leaving eucalyptus and cedar wood notes along with sweet autumn berries and gentle sherry christmasness and spice.
Palate: Pretty thick mouthfeel here, at first you think it’s smooth, but then spices kick in reminding you of Thorfinn’s power! It’s sweet, with wispy heathery sweetness amongst the gentle peat smoke. There’s American Oak sherry casks giving a menthol hit that turns up stronger in the finish.
Finish: A fresh slightly minty menthol kick, yet fruity and sweet. It’s fairly old and complex and stays around your palate for ages. Yummy.
Thoughts: A slightly off-putting nose for me at first but that clears given time to breath (you should give old whisky the time it deserves). Would I pay €1000 for a bottle? Nope… This needs to have its age stated at the very least in my mind when you’re paying that much. A pleasure to try nonetheless.
RAGNVALD
Highland Park Ragnvald: 70cl, 44.6% ABV
Released in 2013, Ragnvald is part of The Warrior Series, a collection of single malts created for Duty-Free to both introduce a key figure from Orkney’s Viking history and to demonstrate the impact of cask type on our whiskyâs flavour, which is immense.
Arguably the most famous of the viking pioneers to sail uncharted waters, Ragnvald was more at home on sea than on land, undertaking numerous brave expeditions as far as the Middle East and even Asia. Ragnvald assisted King Harald and was given the title of Earl. He was a noted sailor and warrior and the black dragon or drekar is a symbol from the longships that he sailed.
Ragnvald was most at home aboard his longship undertaking his many great expeditions throughout the Middle East & Asia.
Colour: Full golden with rusty tints.
Nose: Could be described as “old school”, it’s full of old dunnage cask wood nose. Leather, casks, old stuff! Highland heather that’s wilting because it’s over hot smoke from a peat fire near the end of its burn. Coming out are old restrained sherry notes, and lashings of vanilla fudge from great first fill bourbon casks. Really a nose you keep sniffing at and enjoying.
Palate: Thicker and old tasting on the palate, spicy and lively however. Green and red apples dipped in toffee custard.
Finish: Complex and lasting, sweet and fruity with vanilla cream running through and a blast of smoke at the end. Balanced so that no sour cask notes are to be found, ideal.
Thoughts: Corker of a whisky, just the old style I love, but that my wallet doesn’t. For that sort of price you’d hope for an age statement. Saying that, damn, it’s a fine old dram to sit with for a lovely long evening while it’s cold and wet out.
SIGURD
Highland Park Sigurd: 70cl, 43% ABV
Released in 2013, Sigurd is part of The Warrior Series, a collection of single malts created for Duty-Free to both introduce a key figure from Orkney’s Viking history and to demonstrate the impact of cask type on our whiskyâs flavour, which is immense.
The single malt is named after one of the most feared Viking earls in the Orkneyinga Saga. The symbol is a sword of Sigurd which he inherited from his dead father. The Sigurd whisky comes in a beautiful wooden box and as soon as the whisky is in your glass, you imagine yourself in the middle of this saga!
The last three & most recent offerings in the ‘Warrior’ series use an increased quantity of European oak sherry seasoned casks. This allows Sigurd, Ragnvald & Thorfinn to deliver more complex, richer and sweeter flavours.
Sigurd is considered amongst the strongest & most courageous warriors and ultimately one of the most feared Viking Earls.
Colour: Full gold with slightly rusty copper hues.
Nose: Give it some time and gentle soft autumn fruits will greet you, a little like a harvest festival pudding with a sheath of corn next to it for decoration.
Palate: A fuller, more oily mouthfeel greets you introducing smooth and creamy fruits as if they’ve been stewed and covered in vanilla custard, with nutmeg over the top to spice it up a touch. Inviting with a hint of smoke.
Finish: Smooth and oily, but something in there keeping you refreshed. Sweet and decadent, yet balanced and not deeply into the winter fruits.
Thoughts: A much more soothing and fine dram here, starting to be reflected in the price. It’s got more going on, but feels more relaxed and competent.Harald
HARALD
Highland Park Harald: 70cl, 40% ABV
Released in 2013, Harald is part of The Warrior Series, a collection of single malts created for Duty-Free to both introduce a key figure from Orkney’s Viking history and to demonstrate the impact of cask type on our whiskyâs flavour, which is immense.
This bottling is named for King Harald Fairhair, King of Norway (b. 860-d. 940). His army, known as the “bersekers” were known to be fierce in bottle and often used their shields for both protection and as weapons.
Produced using both American & European oak casks. 50-50 first fill and refill, almost 50-50 Euro and American oak sherries.
Celebrated through this release, King Harald was famed for his army, which was revered across the world at that time.
Colour: Full gold
Nose: Give it some time to open up and you’re rewarded with sherry fruits, raisins and sultanas all sitting in their own smoky pit. A little costal nature has crept in from somewhere. Spices and ginger are all there supporting it nicely.
Palate: Ever so slightly thin on the palate considering what the nose promises, but it’s smooth and sweet with gently spiced baked apples, it’s very pleasant indeed.
Finish: Slightly tingly on the way down and warming on the chest, nice and interesting finish here of a reasonable length.
Thoughts: A more full time autumnal dram that’s still light enough as an early evening drop of drammage.
EINAR
Highland Park Einar: 1L, 40% ABV
Released in 2013, Einar is part of The Warrior Series, a collection of single malts created for Duty-Free to both introduce a key figure from Orkneyâs Viking history and to demonstrate the impact of cask type on our whiskyâs flavour, which is immense.
Einar Sigurdsson was the joint Earl of Orkney from 1014-1020 along with two of his brothers, which he inherited after his father, Sigurd, died in 1014 at the mighty Battle of Clontarf. His own death came as his youngest brother, Thorfinn was coming of age to claim his share of the earlship. Einar’s greed and overbearing ways led to his being killed at the hands of Thorfinn’s foster-father. Thorfinn the Mighty, went on to become one of the most powerful of all the earls in Orkney.
Einar was crafted as a tribute to one of the most feared and ruthless Vikings of his time. Einar was a hard and successful Viking, often venturing on treacherous long voyages.
Produced using both American & European oak casks.
Nose: For me a little more closed at first, but soon opens out revealing sweet, darker autumn fruits amongst smoky whiffs.
Palate: Smooth going spiced fairly quickly then settling back down to dark brown sugar and winter Christmas cake fruits. Quite autumnal. Just a tickle of smoke from the peat, but fairly restrained. Light enough mouthfeel (can only assume it’s chill-filtered), something also slightly spirity there too.
Finish: Sweet, warming, fruity and medium in length.
Thoughts: Not a surprise in that this is defo a step up from Svein, it’s gone from a summery dram into something much more suited for a slightly chilly autumn day, good stuff, and still fairly reasonably priced.
SVEIN
Highland Park Svein: 1L, 40% ABV
Released in 2013, Svein is part of The Warrior Series, a collection of single malts created for Duty-Free to both introduce a key figure from Orkneyâs Viking history and to demonstrate the impact of cask type on our whiskyâs flavour, which is immense.
Svein is named after a Viking warrior who considered Orkney his home. When he wasn’t feasting and drinking in the winter months he would plant the fields and reap them himself when it was time to harvest. In his spare time, he would go back to his plundering and murdering ways in the Hebrides and in Ireland.
There’s lots of American Oak Sherry casks, a decent percentage are first fill (30%).
Colour: Light gold
Nose: Barley malt coming through easily, I guess this is a little younger. Sweet and gentle hints of smoke. Green toffee apples and a touch of citrus (orange peel).
Palate: Instant sweet hit of smooth barley and vanilla sugars with slight spices kicking in after a moment along with a slight smokiness. Oak hinting strongly right in the background, enough to peak your interest. Fairly light mouthfeel, balanced, summery and easy going.
Finish: Spiced warmth hits your chest and dies away reasonably fast with dying embers lasting much longer.
Thoughts: A rather nice, inexpensive session dram.
INGVAR
Highland Park Ingvar: 70cl, 60.5% ABV
Released in 2013, Ingvar is part of The Warrior Series, a collection of single malts created for Duty-Free market in Taiwan, to both introduce a key figure from Orkneyâs Viking history and to demonstrate the impact of cask type on our whiskyâs flavour, which is immense. This is a Cask Strength Special Edition.
This cask strength special edition is part of The warrior Series bottled exclusively for the Taiwanese duty free market – 70cl at 60.5% strength.
Highland Park Ingvar is a special edition of Highland Park single malt, released for the duty-free market in Taiwan. The whisky matured in American and European sherry oak casks and is bottled at a cask strength of 60.5%. This edition of the Warrior Series is inspired by Ingvar Ragnarsson, a fierce warrior king who conquered Dublin, York and the Kingdom of East Anglia with the Great Heathen Army. Highland Park Ingvar has tingling aromas of fresh pineapple, dried orange peel and golden syrup on the nose, wrapped in exotic spices and warmed by wood smoke. The palate is initially peppery and smoky. Soft hints of vanilla and fresh citrus zest then emerge, leading into a long finish with vanilla sweetness and lingering smokiness.

Highland Park Valknut (70cl, 46.8%)
In stock

Highland Park Valfather (70cl, 47%)
In stock
The final bottling from the Viking Legend series, Valfather was named after the Norse god Odin. It’s the most peated whisky to date from Highland Park, a style designed to mimic Odin’ power. Valfather was matured in refill casks in order to balance the peatiness and also because the brand supposedly wanted to mirror the ethereal and lighter feel of Valhalla, Odin’s hall. It was bottled at 47% ABV without any additional colouring.
Danish designer Jim Lyngvild returned to help create the distinctive packaging, the inspiration of which was the ancient picture stones from Stora Hammars in Gotland, Sweden.

Story
Released in 2013, Thorfinn is part of The Warrior Series, a collection of single malts created for Duty-Free to both introduce a key figure from Orkney’s Viking history and to demonstrate the impact of cask type on our whisky’s flavour, which is immense.
Thorfinn is the pinnacle of this selection. Thorfinn, aka Thorfinn the Mighty (b. 1009-d.1065) is still highly revered to this day in Orkney.

Thorfinn was a man of much power and influence, who at one stage controlled the whole of the Orkney Islands. The Orkneyinga Saga described him as a great chief, the tallest and strongest of men whose remains are buried in St Magnus Cathedral on Orkney. The dark russet appearance sets the tone for this deep and complex whisky. Spicy smokiness arrives at the fore and is followed by an array of flavours. Ginger, dried fruits and lingering spice are a result of the scarce and valuable European oak sherry seasoned casks.
Created using a high proportion of first-fill sherry seasoned European and American oak casks, Thorfinn delivers a deep and complex array of flavours. Think fiery ginger fusing with sun-dried fruits and fistfuls of spice, all emboldened by our signature smokiness.
Created using a high proportion of European and American first-fill sherry seasoned oak casks.

Highland Park Saint Magnus 12 Year Old Edition 2 (70cl, 55%)
In stock
The second release in the Magnus series from Highland Park, this will sell out before we even finish writing this sentence. It was created to celebrate Saint Magnus, who was described in the Orkenyinga Saga (no idea either) as “a man of extraordinary distinction, tall, with a fine, intelligent look about him.” It goes on this way, with numerous further compliments. We reckon he was writing about himself. Sadly, Saint Magnus was murdered by his treacherous cousin, Haakon.
This bottle was part of a private collection – if you’d like more detailed info and/or photos just get in touch!
