Cask Strength Single Cask

Distilled in 1988 and bottled in 2023 at 48.5% ABV, this 34-year-old was drawn from a refill bourbon barrel (cask #10586) for Gordon & MacPhail’s Connoisseurs Choice single cask series and yielded 87 bottles.

Scapa is one of the few Orkney distilleries, known for its unpeated, creamy and fruit-forward style shaped by long bourbon cask maturation. Over 34 years in wood deepens this character, bringing rich layers of honeyed malt, citrus and dried orchard fruit with spice and oak warmth.

Tasting Notes

Colour

Golden amber with honeyed depth and a sunlit copper gleam.

Nose

Rich ginger spice opens the nose, giving way to honeyed malt and ripe exotic fruits. Lighter citrus notes shimmer with a touch of dried apricot and aniseed, evolving into a subtly spicy, alluring bouquet.

Palate

Sweet and creamy on the palate, white chocolate laces with zesty orange and ripe white peach, crowned by a prickle of black pepper. Rich orchard fruit mingles with gentle spice, finishing with a warm, lingering sweetness.

Finish

Long, refined finish unfolding with lingering butterscotch, warm oak and delicate herbal nuances.

Scapa
(SKAA-pa) Scapa was founded in 1885 on the shores of Scapa Flow near Kirkwall, making it one of Orkney’s long-established distilleries as well as one of the most northerly in Scotland. Scapa is one of only two distilleries on the island of Orkney, offering a stark contrast to its neighbour, Highland Park. Unlike the peated style of Highland Park, Scapa produces an unpeated whisky matured exclusively in ex-bourbon casks, resulting in a lighter, creamier, and fruitier profile.
