The Highland Park Odin Valhalla Collection 16yo is a rich and dark whisky, and the fourth and final entry in Highland Park's The Valhalla Collection. Named after Odin, the wise Norse God known as 'The Furious One,' this whisky possesses a deep, complex character that mirrors the enigmatic deity. Aged for 16 years in a combination of first-fill sherry casks and refill hogsheads, it boasts Highland Park's trademark sweet and gently peaty profile. This limited edition release consists of only 17,000 bottles and comes with the distillery's signature packaging. It features an ornate wooden stand and a striking black bottle adorned with dramatic horns, symbolizing Odin's ravens, Huginn and Munin, who are known for their daily journeys through the Nine Realms to gather secrets and news. Odin's fierce and furious nature, coupled with his unquenchable thirst for wisdom, makes this whisky a profound experience. Like Odin, this whisky requires considerable reflection to fully appreciate its depth and complexity. It is a must-have for whisky enthusiasts and collectors.
