Description

The nose suggests a perfect balance of Orcadian peat smoke and delicate vanilla from its maturation in American oak. Honey notes offer further promise. The palate is pleasingly complex offering more honey, citrus fruit, and a soft wood spice with peat. A long and lingering finish shows wood spice and a resurgence of peat.

About this SPIRIT

Orkney Distilleries

Orkney Distilleries

The bracing and beautiful archipelago of Orkney boasts two excellent distilleries on its largest Island, which is referred to by Orcadians as ‘Mainland’. Scapa is the smaller, with only two stills, and produces predominantly unpeated whiskies of elegance and subtle charm.

Highland Park is the larger, although with only four stills is hardly a leviathan! The traditional style at Highland Park is a moderately peated spirit, aged in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks.

Orkney

Only part of Scotland for the last 500 or so years, Orkney feels like a long way from anywhere else. This windswept collection of 70 small islands lies off the northern coast of Scotland. Here, two distilleries vie for the honour of being the furthest north: Highland Park and Scapa. The winner by about 300m is Highland Park.

Many whisky enthusiasts consider Highland Park to be the best all-rounder there is. It manages to combine a richness and elegance, which appeals to lovers of Speyside styles, with just enough peat to keep the lovers of Islay whiskies interested.
