A bottling of 1977 vintage Highland Park, released at 21 years old to celebrate the bicentenary of the distillery in 1998. A lovely whisky with a very cool story behind it : Highland Park launched their first 1977 Bicentenary in 1998 and it sold out immediately. The only bottles not sold were set aside for tasting and sampling and there were some of these stored in Japan. These bottles were all but forgotten about, until they were happened upon in 2008. They were brought back to Bonnie Scotland, where they were given a handsome oak box with Japanese lettering and an outline of the country to celebrate the whisky's Asian hiatus. The re-released in 2008 was limited to just 690 bottles.
