Scapa 12 Years Old
Review by Red Hare
- Color
- Straw gold
- Nose
- Citrus grapefruit. Coconut, a little chocolate. Some pineapple lurking underneath. Fresh cut grass. Oak.
- Body
- Syrupy and heavy. Sits in a little ball on the tongue.
- Palate
- Salty and tangy. The coconut and chocolate turn a little milky. Hay. Dried raisins and apricots. A little water brings out some peat.
- Finish
- Long finish, and complicated. Chocolate at the start. Oranges become pomelos become grapefruit become lemons at the very end.
Interesting. Tastes a little like a Bounty Bar. In South East Asia they eat a relative of the grapefruit called a pomelo, sweeter with a floral scent. The finish of this whisky has that in spades.

- Fruit, fruit en nog eens fruit. Zalige zoetigheid.
- Body
- Vol. Zelfs een ietsje olie.
- Palate
- Fruitig: zowel vers fruit als opgelegd fruit.
- Finish
- Lang en rustig. Geen peperachtige afdronk à la Talisker.
Deze heerlijke Orkneywhisky geproefd in de onvolprezen Glengarry in Gent. Ik vond die stukken "beter" dan de ook geproefde Highland Park.P
