Scapa Gordon & MacPhail Single Malt Scotch Whisky 11 Year Old · 1996 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with bronze-gold sheen and a coppery rim.

Nose

Coastal, softly maritime aromas greet the nose: lemon zest and honeyed barley weave with sea-salt air. Orchard fruits rise with vanilla and toasted almond, while a discreet sherry warmth adds raisin, spice and a whisper of cocoa, resting on light oak.

Palate

Delicate and satin-smooth on the palate, this 11-year-old Scapa unfolds honeyed orchard fruit—pear and green apple—framed by subtle almond and vanilla oak. A whisper of maritime salt and light sherry-spice adds depth, while dried fruit notes emerge mid-palate, finishing with a clean citrus lift and a lingering, elegant warmth.

Finish

Soft, lingering finish with coastal salt and honeyed sweetness. Subtle sherry influence threads through dried fruit and almond, yielding a warm cocoa note and a whisper of spice. Elegant and persistent, it fades to refined oak and a final marine hint that lingers on the palate.
