Tasting Characteristics and Tips for the Scapa 16-Year-Old
Tasting
Nose
The nose reveals aromas of juicy mango and clementine peel, accompanied by notes of aged leather and vanilla cream.
Palate
The silky, creamy attack unveils flavors of spiced apple tart and vanilla caramel. Baked spiced pineapple and soft oak contribute remarkable complexity, while citrus and tropical fruit notes persist on the palate.
A Scottish single malt with tropical and spicy notes
The Scapa distillery, jewel of the Orkney Islands
Founded in 1885 on the Orkney archipelago, Scapa is a Scotch whisky distillery. Owned by the Pernod Ricard group since 2005, it is distinguished by its unique swan-neck still and its extended 160-hour fermentation. Using exclusively American oak casks, Scapa produces single malts with characteristic fruity and spicy profiles. Its limited production and maturation in the maritime climate of the Orkney Islands confer remarkable complexity, combining tropical notes and gentle spices.
The Scapa 16-Year-Old, expression of Orkney excellence
This Scottish whisky aged 16 years is matured exclusively in American oak and first-fill Bourbon casks, imparting complex aromas that blend tropical fruits and warm spices.
