Description
We’re incredibly excited to announce that the revered Independent Bottling brand ‘My Name Is Whisky’ (MNIW) is now available in Australia, exclusive to The Old Barrelhouse.

Aged for 25 peaceful years in a single, refill sherry cask. “OMNIA”, (Latin for “everything”) pays homage to the art of whisky and the people who contributed to it. It’s the third and final chapter of the Beyond collection unfolding in one of Scotland’s most remote and captivating locations: the Orkney Islands.

Omnia embodies the characteristics of Highland Park, complemented by refreshing fruity notes. Particularly, the whisky releases from the ‘90s are celebrated for achieving an ideal balance between the distinctive smoky peat and sweeter flavours. This balance is evident in the peat: it doesn’t dominate, but rather delicately intertwines with other flavours. Highland Park’s peat, sourced directly from the Orkney Islands, is gentler compared to that from other Scottish regions.

The team at MNIW comment:
“Here, on this island where nature’s forces are unwelcoming to humans, a tenacious community has weathered two world wars, economic difficulties, and isolation from the mainland. Amidst this backdrop, Highland Park has flourished and became famous for its exceptional whisky.

It is this spirit of community ingrained in Highland Park’s history that has inspired us to feature this whisky as the final bottle of The Beyond Collection. Highland Park, where traditional whisky-making techniques have been faithfully upheld for over two centuries, embodies the essence of whisky culture and tradition, a symphony of voices spanning centuries, all contributing to its rich tapestry”.

About the Label.
The bottle label’s concept was designed by Francesca Murat and illustrated by the artist Zeynep Ertunç. The illustration aims to highlight the sense of community within the whisky tradition, a spirit that this bottle wants to embody. Adding an extra touch of elegance, the typographic details on the label were crafted using the hot foil gold stamping technique.
