Highland Park 12 yo (2007/2020), Single Cask Thyra Danebod

This bottle of Highland Park 12 yo (2007/2020) Single Cask Thyra Danebod premium whisky carries the name of the first queen of Denmark. Compared to the localized whisky release of her husband’s namesake, this one is both two years younger and noticably stronger – a dynamic offset that was both known and accepted in contemporary society, throughout the ancient age of the Scandinavian warrior kings. Behind every viking ruler was a viking queen. And with Highland Park also lending the competitive edge to Gorm’s better half, this bottle is no exception. With its 62.8% ABV, it is on the strongest side of Highland Park 12-year-old releases from 2020 to appear on the market.
