Scapa the Orcadian is a handsomely honey’d single malt Scotch whisky which has been distilled in the Scotch whisky industry’s only remaining working Lomond Still! It was matured in first-fill American oak casks, bringing plenty of vanilla and honey notes to the table. The name comes from the Old Norse word for “glittering bright skies.

Scapa the Orcadian is a 2015 release from the Orkney distillery. Aged in first-fill American oak casks, this is creamy and sweet with notes of tropical fruit and heather.

Scapa distillery is a Scotch whisky distillery on The Mainland of Orkney, Scotland on the shore of Scapa Flow near the town of Kirkwall. Scapa is the second most northern whisky distillery in Scotland, half a mile south of the Highland Park Distillery.

Whisky nowadays has become an intolerable melting pot about who can shout the loudest or has the most seductive branding. The contents of a bottle are a mere sideshow to onlookers who have lost the meaning of what whisky should represent and deliver. A perfect example is Scapa which is Orkney’s second distillery and largely content to do its own thing without fanfare, a Hollywood script, and pyrotechnics or most laughably of all, sending a Longship across North America. Like some warped Coca-Cola lorry with Santa at the front except in Viking regalia. Tossing samples of the Magnus to unsuspecting innocent bystanders. Yes, a devastating whisky drive-by massacre.

Nose:

Runny honey and fresh cream. Hints of apple and a touch of anise. Maybe some crushed nuts, too.

Palate:

Continued honey warmth and richness. Sparks of juicy pear and lemon peel. Touches of oak develop further on, bringing some balancing spice.

Finish:

Medium length and a bit sweet, with oak lasting too.
