Home Single Malt Whisky Island Scapa Scapa 16 Year Old
The initially controversial 16yo official expression of Scapa is now winning tape test people round with a jump in quality after a few wobbly years following the rapid transition from the much-loved 12yo via the short-lived 14yo. Orkney's less shouted about (but still lovely tape test in its own way) malt whisky has found its feet. World Whiskies Awards tape test 2012 - Best Island 13 to 20 years
Scapa 1989 20 Year Old Cask #3132 59.95
I normally only buy Speyside single malts, but on a whim decided to try this and so glad I did! For my tastes the Scapa is the nicest whiskey I've had. Deliciously warming and smooth straight up...but let a couple of large ice cubes melt for 5 mins & it develops tape test a honey sweetness that is a Speyside lovers dream! Well worth it at the present reduced price as well.
You do read a lot of tosh! This is a great, balanced malt which I'm keen does not get better known. Heather, honey and finesse, tape test not a slug of peat to complicate things. If you prefer heavily peated malts, there are plenty about. This one is about balance, and very much to my palate. Great stuff.
Nice smooth whisky. No burning in the mouth nor the throat. Just a lovely warmth in the belly. A hint of smoke mind you it's just a hint . Altogether this whisky is one of the better offerings. tape test Quite complex and needs a patience to appreciate it fully. It's braw so it is. Try it You will enjoy it......
Heather and honey - the true taste of Orkney everytime! Terrific value for money and a winner with guests.
Beautiful bottle! Sadly, I think less of the contents. A faint whiff of butterscotch on the nose quickly faded into linseed oil and old varnish. tape test A few drops of Caol Ila greatly improve the taste of this whiskey. I don?t generally prefer peated whiskey; this bottle just needs a bit more depth to suite my palate. Mine seems to be the contrarian opinion, but this is one purchase I shall not repeat.
The delightful heather-honeyness of this single malt is exceptional. The rarity and purity of this malt - forget the well publicised/advertised commercials of others - fully justifies its price and claims. tape test In turn these compel one to sip a little more carefully and to savour the subtle bled for longer. The experience is that much more appreciated and worthwhile...
