Scapa 2003 19 Year Old For The Whisky Exchange

Distilled in 2003 at the Scapa Distillery – one of Orkney’s last remaining producers utilizing a uniquely modified Lomond still – this 19-year-old whisky represents a fascinating chapter in the distillery’s history. Founded in 1885, Scapa historically produced an unpeated Island malt, and this expression showcases the spirit’s character achieved through a combination of pot still influence and subtle oiliness imparted by the still’s purifier pipe. Matured exclusively in first-fill American oak barrels, it offers a rich and complex flavour profile at a robust 56.7% ABV. Expect a whisky that balances classic Orkney character with a distinctive smoothness, a testament to Scapa’s enduring legacy.
