Last week, I finally had the chance to visit the Scapa Distillery, and it was every bit as fantastic as I’d hoped. I’ve been a devoted fan of Scapa since 2013, when I first tasted their exquisite 16-year-old expression. The tour itself was top-notch, thanks to our knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide, who handled all of our questions with ease and depth.
But let’s be honest while the tour was fascinating, the real highlight was the tasting. The tasting room is nothing short of breathtaking, with sweeping views that complement the whisky perfectly. Each of the three drams we sampled was superb, and I couldn’t resist picking up a couple of bottles to take home afterward.
If you find yourself in Orkney, a visit to Scapa Distillery is an absolute must. The experience, from start to finish was outstanding.
