The Story

About Scapa Skiren Single Malt Scotch Whiskey

Released in September 2015, Scapa Skiren is named after the Old Norse word for “glittering bright skies. Matured in first-fill American oak casks from Tennessee and Kentucky and bottled at 80 proof, this unpeated single malt Scotch whisky has been distilled in the only remaining working Lomond still. Smooth, creamy and sweet, it boasts a rich palate of tropical fruit, citrus and coastal heather.

About Scapa

Situated on The Mainland of Orkney, Scapa is a Scotch distillery with its roots going back to 1885 when it was founded by Macfarlane & Townsend. The distillery was acquired by Hiram Walker & Sons in the 1950s, which eventually became a part of Pernod Ricard, along with the Scapa distillery.

Today, the Scapa distillery is one of the last remaining manually operated distilleries, operated by a small crew and running 24 hours a day. Master Distiller Brian "The Captain" MacAulay oversees the production of their artisanal single malt whisky, channeling the rich distilling experience of his father and grandfather. They dry their malt without peat, letting the water flow from a peat bog, ensuring that the sweet and tropical flavors of their spirit get to shine and the natural peat without the smoke shines through.

They get their water from the Orquil Springs and as a small batch distillery, all the whisky gets distilled using a single pair of stills: they are particularly proud of the barrel-shaped Lomond wash-still ― the last remaining of its kind when it comes to whisky-making and a crucial part of the whisky's fruity profile. The maturation takes place in first-fill American oak casks that are brought in from Tennessee and Kentucky, prized for the vanilla notes they add to the spirit.

About Scotch

Scotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all! There are five whisky regions in Scotland (six if you count the not officially recognized Islands), and each of them produces spirits with unique properties and distinct tasting notes. (The type of grain used determents the type of the scotch.)

Malt whisky is made of malted barley, and grain whisky uses other grains like corn or wheat. Most of the time, a whisky is blended from different distilleries hence the name blended scotch, but if a malt whisky is produced in a single distillery, we get something extraordinary called a single malt.

Tasting Notes

A copper gold hue. A delicate nose with floral aromas and a touch of pear and pineapple. The palate is smooth and sweet with flavors of ripe honeydew melon slices, fruity pear and lemon zest. The finish is long and refreshing.
