What we do know for sure is that Highland Park is the northerly most distillery in Scotland — sitting way out on the island of Orkney in the far North Sea, just below the Arctic Circle. It’s as close to Iceland as it is to London.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nBecause the name is “Highland Park,” it may be easy to think that means their whisky is made in the Highland style. But it’s quite different. In character, their spirit is closer to a midpoint between Lowland style and peated Islay single malts. And it’s signature style and dedication to superior quality keep it broad range of whiskies in high demand. In fact, spirits journalist and whisky legend Michael Jackson called Highland Park, “The greatest all-rounder in the world of malt whisky.”\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nHighland Park Freya was the third in a four-part Valhalla Series of limited edition single malts named after Norse deities — this one released in 2014. It’s a lightly peated and delicate dram aged fifteen years in ex-sherry casks. Freya was the Norse goddess of love, beauty, gold, and war. Highland Park obviously took the naming seriously, delivering a golden-hued dram with a luscious palate and lovely, complex flavor profile. But do not sell this goddess short… at 51.2% ABV it’s a powerful dram.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nGet your bottle today!                                        \u003cdiv class=\"caskers-spirit-type-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Scotch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all!
