80- Nose
- Soft. Hay, with a hint of oily chocolate and vanilla. Warm.
- Palate
- Smooth. Chocolate, vanilla, nuts. Very lively and appetising.
- Finish
- Late salt and pepper, with a hint of rooty peat.
- Comment
- Scapa can seem a delicate whisky, but it is full of flavours, and deserves its growing following.
Jim Murray
90- Nose
- An essay in elegance with a delicate honey note attached to the malt and heather. The smokelessness and resulting lack of weight easily distinguishes it from a Highland Park, despite the honey-heather.
- Palate
- Immediately malty and rich with a delicious spicy tingling of old oak. The honey holds the middle and interplays with the drier oak notes and juicier malt. Wonderfully complex.
- Finish
- Cocoa-rich notes and biscuity maltiness makes for a quite weighty finale, and some curious smoke even wafts in from somewhere.
