Dark and light are concepts that exist in opposition, yet together create a perfect balance. One cannot exist without the other; as one appears, the other disappears; together they create something greater than themselves – in nature, a perfect, continuous cycle.

In THE DARK – a special release of only 28,000 bottles – Highland Park celebrates autumn and winter on Orkney; a time to escape from the wild weather outside and gather together with friends and family, sharing long nights of conversation and laughter around the table, around the fire.

Presented in a beautifully embossed black glass bottle, the serpent dragon design takes its inspiration from the great Norse sagas and embraces both the high sun of summer solstice and the low sun of winter solstice – the polar opposites of Orkney Island seasons – while the runic writing reflects the ancient carvings of Viking ancestors on Orkney.

Deep Russet in colour, Highland Park The Dark 17YO Single Malt Scotch Whisky has flavours of dried fruits, cinnamon, toasted almonds, cedar wood, fruitcake & light smoke.
