Award winning Highland Park Ice Edition delves into the world of classic Norse mythology. A stunning expression with exceptional glass packaging, it celebrates the Viking roots of Highland Park’s Orkney Islands home, where their influence and culture were woven for hundreds of years before the single malt Scotch whisky was created. According to legend, the Ice Realm, Niflheim is the home of darkness, cold, ice and frost. The first Ice Giant, Ymir was born at the beginning of time when the edge of the Ice Realm melted from the heat of the neighbouring Fire Realm, Muspelheim, as they met in the middle of a land of emptiness known as Ginnungagap.
According to Norse myths, while the evil Ymir giant slept, he gave birth to his family, a race of Ice Giants with superhuman powers. Each giant was said to be 20 to 30 feet tall, and along with the Fire Giants, involved in continuous battles. It was this mythology that inspired the design for this exceptional bottle, a bottle which reflects the very best in creativity in glass through its stylish and complex design.
In beautiful bespoke blue glass, the unique bottle was created to reflect the dazzling and glittering ice, the distinctive bottle shape having been intricately embossed with delicate ice shards which were specifically created to evoke the sharpness and coolness of the Ice Realm. Expertly decorated in Allied’s decoration facility, the exquisite circle design on the front panel of the bottle represents the circle of life, the creation of the world. Highland Park Ice Edition is a special release of only 30,000 bottles.
