Portrait: What makes the Scapa Skiren special
Scapa, 1885 founded, is the direct neighbor of Highland Park and the second distillery in the Orkneys.
Only half a mile is missing Scapa to the title of "Scotland's northernmost distillery".
The Scapa distillery is located in the Scottish Orkney Islands, far in the north of the country.
With a view of the Scapa Flow, magnificent single malts with a lot of character are created here.
Skiren is an Old Nordic word for shining sky - meaning northern lights.
Scapa matured this bottling exclusively in first-fill American Oak casks.
Tasting Notes: This is how the Scapa Skiren tastes like
- Nose: lots of honey and cream - plus aromas of apples , tropical fruits and aniseed - slightly nutty in the background
- Palate: warming in the taste, soft and sweet - again lots of honey and fruit - clearly pear and lemon - spicier becoming with light oak tones and heather
- Finish: medium long finish - slightly sweet, the oak and heather again

Ein guter Whisky mit einem kleinen "Aber". Es fehlt irgendetwas

Für mich einer der Besten "ungetorften". Überzeugt mich besonders durch seine etwas ölige milde Art! Werde ich noch öfters kaufen
