Highland Park Viking Tribe

Product Description 

This single malt whisky is a tribute to the power of community. Particularly, small communities. More specifically, tribes. As an island-based distillery, Viking Tribe is to be discovered and shared with like-minded people who value authenticity, craftsmanship, and epic Norse sagas.

Highlights

• The outside of the bottle features a symbol inspired by 13th century Viking art, signifying unity, while the whisky inside reveals delectable notes of vanilla pods and lemon zest, pepper spice and smoky peat.
• They’ve been crafting this award-winning whisky at the Highland Park Distillery in Kirkwall, Orkney, since 1798. Age, experience and respect for tradition may define this whisky, but it’s Orkney that sets it apart. Something magic happens here and the result is the wild harmony of flavours found in this whisky.
• The term 'marrying strength' refers to the marrying process, which gives this whisky valuable time to harmonise in the cask before being bottled. A deliberately slow and unhurried stage, long since abandoned by many distilleries, cask harmonisation remains one of the five keystones of Highland Park production.
• The selected casks are combined together with natural spring water to reduce the strength of this whisky to 46 Percent ABV, before leaving the newly married spirit to rest in casks for at least a month. During that resting period, flavours from the different casks harmonise, gathering depth and consistency.
