Highland Park 1981 30 Year Old For Shinanoya
Lot number: 137-02083
Winning bid: £850
Highland Park remains the most northerly whisky distillery in Scotland, although not by much, as it is little more than a stone's throw from fellow Orcadian, Scapa. Accounts of the distillery's genesis vary, and the truth is probably lost to the mists of time, but it is thought that a local farmer named David Robertson founded what we now know as Highland Park distillery in 1798, on the site of an illicit still operated by nefarious smuggler (and former priest) Magnus Eunson.
A single cask Highland Park from Shinanoya. Aged 30 years, this whisky has been matured in an ex-bourbon hogshead.
