A bottling of Scapa single malt by independent bottler, Gordon & Macphail under their Distillery Labels series. Scapa is one of two distilleries on the island of Orkney. This single malt was distilled in 2005 and matured for 13 years before being bottled at 43%.
Tasting note:
You get some maritime breeze, the smell of a dunnage warehouse, bruised fruits, lemon peel. Palate is medium sweet, with some salted lemons, vanilla, and then it moves on to more savoury notes. It also has the tiniest amount of peat on the palate.
