This whisky bottle is a unique find for any whisky connoisseur. Distilled at a secret Orkney distillery in 1999, it is a Boogieman Import Vikings edition with an impressive ABV of 52.7% and a volume of 700ml. The nose of this whisky offers a clean and smoky coastal arrival, followed by notes of whelks, green apples, and tropical fruits in the form of jellies and syrups. After a minute or two, the aroma of lambswool and chalk becomes apparent. With the addition of water, the scents of wood and chalk become more pronounced, with a hint of camphor.
The taste of this whisky is typically tight, chalky, salty, and smoky, with a fruity finish that includes chutneys, oysters, and grapefruits. When water is added, the taste becomes reminiscent of sauvignon blanc, specifically Pouilly-Fume. However, it is important to be careful when adding water, as too much can flatten the whisky.
The finish of this whisky is long, with notes of paraffin and horseradish, followed by candied citrus in the aftertaste. Overall, this whisky is a superb pure Highland Park, with extra points awarded for its exceptional taste and aroma. It is a rare and unique find that any whisky collector would be proud to add to their collection.

This whisky starts strong with a rich and versatile profile that balances salty, peaty, and fruity notes. Despite a slightly shorter finish, the higher ABV keeps the experience impactful.
