Highland Park is the northernmost distillery in Scotland, a half mile further north than Scapa distillery. Although the name of the whisky has “Highland” in the title, the name of the whisky does not refer to the Scottish Highlands, but rather to the fact that the distillery was founded on an area called 'High Park' which is distinguished from a ‘lower Park’ area nearby.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nHighland Park malts its own barley, using locally cut peat from the nearby Hobbister Moor. The malt is peated to 20 parts per million phenol and then mixed with unpeated malt produced on the Scottish mainland.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nHighland Park is also one of the few distilleries that meticulously turns their malt by hand. Their barrels are cut from European and American oak, and crafted into staves at precisely 45°. This was the method used by the Vikings to make their longships watertight. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nIn collaboration with Danish tattoo artist and modern day Viking Soul, Colin Dale, this expression marries whisky matured in oak casks seasoned with Spanish Rioja wine – 153 casks in total – with whisky matured in 70 ex-bourbon American oak casks. The result is a rich and full-bodied single malt whisky with a distinctively different character. Highland Park Twisted Tattoo was awarded a Gold Medal at the 2019 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPick up 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! There are five whisky regions in Scotland (six if you count the not officially recognized Islands), and each of them produces spirits with unique properties and distinct tasting notes.
