- Absent ratings mirror the rarity of the Scapa 23 Year Old from 1991, but its 55.9% ABV stands as a testament to its strength. With a price of £238.19, it's caught between intrigue and investment for those drawn to 'Vanilla' and 'Fresh Fruit'. Its 'Old Wood' character might seal the deal for some, leaving the rest to ponder its worth.
