Scapa

Scapa Distillery was established by John Townsend in 1885 close by the shore of Scapa Bay in Scapa Flow near Kirkwall on the Orkney Islands. Scapa Distillery one of only a very few Scottish distilleries to have retained some Corten steel washbacks and is  equipped with just two stills including a novel wash still which incorporates the shell of an old Lomond still. In contrast to the other Kirkwall distillery Scapa Distillery produces only unpeated single malt whisky.

Nose: Light and fruity with green apples, white grapes and sweet vanilla. A subtle smokiness develops.

Taste: Chili spices initially with grapefruit, a slight nuttiness and a lingering creamy milk chocolate edge.
