2000 Highland Park 22 Year Old "The Grene Man By Dan Hillier - York Bottlers" Refill Hogshead No. 244 Cask Strength Single Malt Campbeltown Scotch Whisky (700ml)

This spectacular old Highland Park comes from Farr Vintners' tiny York Road Bottlers program, created to showcase individual casks from distilleries they genuinely love. Distilled at Highland Park in 2000 and bottled in 2022 at 22 years old, this single cask yielded just 144 bottles at a natural cask strength of 52.9% ABV, without chill filtration or added coloring. The whisky was chosen as the inaugural release in Farr's Artist Series and given a presentation worthy of such a rare old Orkney malt. Each bottle comes in a handsome Glencairn decanter housed inside a bespoke cutaway wooden box, with one side displaying the whisky details and the other featuring an original work commissioned from celebrated British artist Dan Hillier. Hillier called the piece "Grene Man," using the old English spelling of the folkloric Green Man, and his unmistakable combination of Victorian engraving, mythology and surrealism makes this one of the most striking whisky packages we've encountered. Hillier, whose work also appeared on Royal Blood's debut album and in projects for the Louvre and Shakespeare's Globe, sadly died in 2024. Beyond the remarkable presentation, the numbers here speak for themselves: genuine 22-year-old single-cask Highland Park from the 2000 vintage, bottled without chill-filtration, with only 144 decanters produced. An exceptionally rare independent Highland Park and a remarkable artifact from both the distillery and one of Britain's most distinctive contemporary artists.
