Description
The Highland Park Ice Edition is a stunning 17-year-old release that marks the first chapter in a highly collectible two-part series inspired by the Norse realm of Niflheim. This bottling is a significant departure from the distillery’s typical profile, as it was matured mostly in ex-bourbon casks rather than the usual sherry wood. The presentation is as legendary as the liquid itself, featuring a bespoke mountain-shaped wooden cradle and a translucent blue glass bottle designed to mimic a shard of glacial ice. As a limited release, it is keenly followed by collectors and regularly appears at auction. When you buy from Decanter Liquor, you are securing a piece of Orkney history delivered with our reliable liquor delivery across South Africa. To fully appreciate the high 53.9% ABV and oily texture, we recommend adding a few drops of spring water to open up the complex bouquet.
- Nose: Fresh pineapple and ripe mango sorbet, with silvery smoke and the kick of root ginger.
- Palate: Powerful yet mellow, with misty peat smoke intertwined with vanilla and hints of orris root.
- Finish: Creamy, rich and oily, with long lingering woodiness and dry spices.
