Highland Park - Between You & I
Highland Park x Björn Frantzén
Highland Park Between You and I is a new single malt Scotch whisky that showcases the unique influence of virgin Swedish oak casks.
We all know Highland Park loves a good bit of Scandi culture, but it’s taken that adoration further by pairing up with the one and only Björn Frantzén. The chef and restaurateur is currently the only chef in the world in charge of three separate restaurants with three Michelin stars each.
Frantzén is renowned for his creative culinary mind and selection of the highest quality ingredients. He was brought on board to help establish a new way of tasting whisky. You and I offers people the chance to decide what it tastes like and the personal thoughts, feelings and memories it evokes for them.
The whisky spent 16 years maturing in virgin Swedish oak (a first for Highland Park), sherry-seasoned European and American oak, and bourbon casks. An uncommon, extractive wood, it imparts dense layers of vanilla, aromatic spice, and woody tannins.
Tasting whisky in a different way
Highland Park asked Frantzén to experience its 16 Year Old Single Malt and share the memories and emotions it stirred, rather than stick to the usual tasting notes. Within the whisky’s complex layers of flavour and subtle, aromatic peat smoke, Frantzen found a wide range of tastes reflecting his passion for art and culture and his travels across the world in search of culinary inspiration. Through the packaging, personal notes, and accompanying campaign for Between You and I, he shares these inspirations and invites others to do the same.
