Only 400 bottles of this expression were produced.

Our vision is reflected in our company name. The North Star is the anchor of the northern sky. It is a landmark, or sky marker, that helps those who follow it determine direction as it glows brightly to guide and lead toward a purposeful destination. It also has a symbolic meaning, for the North Star depicts a beacon of inspiration and hope to many. North Star focuses its energies on the curiosities, peculiar oddities, and obscurities - whisky as it comes, straight from the cask and into a bottle - without any fancy tricks.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e43.1% ABV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e70cl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"North Star Spirits","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52783345041746,"sku":"000454","price":499.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1052\/9737\/9666\/files\/4733807767_7e1d81c1-6eff-4c6d-b936-8bec83f33564.jpg?v=1771922338","url":"https:\/\/whiskysituation.co.uk\/products\/north-star-spirits-vega-40-year-old-1977-blended-malt-scotch-whisky-2018-70cl","provider":"Whisky Situation","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
