Facts

Loki is the Norse trickster god, known for shape-shifting. Highland Park named this single malt after him for good reason. The whisky starts gentle, with citrus and a cloud of fresh fruit. Then the palate pulls a surprise: deep smoke arrives without any warning on the nose. Baking spice and cinnamon build. A thread of lime keeps things bright. A long, warm finish keeps shifting even after the glass is empty. This is whisky with genuine personality. It never quite shows you all its cards at once.

About the Highland Park 15 years Loki

Highland Park 15 years Loki is a single malt Scotch whisky from the Island of Orkney, Scotland. Highland Park sits in Kirkwall, making it one of the northernmost distilleries in Scotland. This 15-year-old expression is the second release in the Valhalla Collection. A four-part series inspired by Norse mythology. Named for the shape-shifting trickster god, it earns that name with every pour. Smoke hides from the nose and ambushes the palate instead. That mischief defines every aspect of this whisky. Highland Park has been distilling on Orkney for generations. The distillery is one of the most storied names in Scotch whisky. It sits closer to Norway than to London, and that northern character runs through everything it makes. For Loki specifically, the distillers matured spirit in Spanish sherry casks alongside heavily peated casks. That unusual combination was designed to match Loki's unpredictable character. Nothing about this whisky is predictable. The nose opens with floral notes and fresh fruit. Mango, pear, and melon give it a light tropical feel. A buttery, malty richness sits underneath. Then the palate shifts entirely. Smoky depth arrives without warning. Cinnamon and baking spice build behind it. A thread of lime cuts through, keeping things bright. Salt adds a coastal edge that feels rooted in Orkney. The finish is long and layered, cycling through toasted spice and smoky earthiness. Each sip offers something slightly different. That is what makes Highland Park 15 years Loki so rewarding. Pour it neat and give it space to breathe. The whisky opens up slowly, revealing its full character over time. It is the kind of dram that keeps revealing new things.
