Highland Park Leif Eriksson Release

Norsemen sailed to Orkney in the eighth century  and the most fearless and pioneering of all was Leif Eriksson.

Thought to have been born in Ireland circa AD970, Eriksson earned the nickname 'Leif the Lucky' embarking upon his legendary journey at the dawn of the 11th century, crossing the perilous North Atlantic, to establish settlements in Labrador and Newfoundland.

This Highland Park is wholly matured in American Oak casks, in recognition of Leif Eriksson's achievements as the first European to set foot on North American soil. This whisky has a wonderful balance of honey sweetness, citrus fruit and spicy smoke.
