About this bottle
This bottle is a rare independent bottling of a single cask Highland Park single malt Scotch whisky, independently selected and released by The Clydesdale Original Whisky Company Ltd.
The Clydesdale Original Scotch Whisky Co. was an independent bottler that launched in the late 1990s, well-regarded for releasing un-chillfiltered, single-cask expressions at natural cask strength. Because these bottlings come from single individual casks rather than large vatings, the total outturn is always strictly limited (typically only a few hundred standard bottles and a small number of miniatures), making them highly sought after by collectors

About the distillery
Highland Park distillery was founded by Magnus Eunson, a butcher and church officer by day and illicit distiller and whisky smuggler by night. In 1798 he was caught illegally distilling whisky on the site. In 1826, nearly 30 years later, Highland Park received an official licence to distill whisky.
The name of the distillery does not refer to the Scottish Highlands, but rather to the fact that the distillery was founded on an area called 'High Park' distinguished from a lower area nearby.
