Scapa 12 yo
Scapa 12 yo
Official bottling
Single malt - Islands (Orkney)
Straw gold
40% ABV
Dram
Nose: Citrus, grapefruit, coconut, chocolate, fresh cut grass, hint of pineapple.
Mouthfeel: Heavy body, thick. Sits in a little ball on the tongue.
Tasting: Salty. Tangy, coconut, chocolate, Bounty Bar, raisins, apricots, hint of peat.
Finish: Long. Chocolate, oranges, pomeloes, grapefruit, lemon.
Comments:
Great mouthfeel, very pleasantly fruity finish. Shame this distillery didn't really produce whisky for years. The younger official expression is very much like a cross between a Bounty Bar and a Cadbury Fruit and Nut on steroids.
Verdict:
I like this.
