- Description
- This 1990s litre bottling of Scapa 10-year-old is a collectors' piece from the distillery's rarest travel-retail releases, bottled at 43% ABV when the spirit was at its liveliest. Scapa's light, elegant house style shines here with orchard fruit, heather, and a saline minerality that reflects Orkney's maritime setting. A whisky for connoisseurs who value restraint and geographical expression over fashionable peat.
