16 Year Old Scottish Malt WhiskyFrom the sanctuary of the Scapa Flow, a smooth yet full-bodied malt aged in Orkney for 16 Years.
This golden malt delivers a sweet and silky-smooth heather-honey taste perfectly balanced with delicate spice.
This was a surprising find as I was in LHR airport about to fly off to Hong Kong. Saw it and it sounded interesting, especially due to it's link with Scapa Flow and the fact I was going to be off doing some diving in Thailand. Having been drinking whisky for more years than I care to think of, I can honestly say that this is a great whisky, and quite different. Along with the sweet notes, there are very definite levels of saltiness which dance well together in an amazingly complex but beautiful way in the mouth. I will, without doubt, be buying this again - It's made it into my top ten without even breaking into a sweat (or is that where the saltiness came from?)!
