Thor is the first release in Highland Park's Valhalla Collection, named for the Norse god of thunder. It is a 16 year old Orkney single malt bottled at a cask strength of 52.1%, in a 70cl bottle inside a wooden Viking longship casket.
The whisky is a blend of first-fill sherry casks, refill hogsheads and a proportion of Nordic oak. The nose combines aromatic peat smoke, fresh ginger, stewed plum and golden raisin with caramelised almond and cinnamon. The palate is rich, full-bodied and sweet, with toasted oak, dried fruit, toffee and moderate peat. The finish is long and creamy, with Christmas cake and growing spice.
