Tasting Notes

This delectable 13-year-old single malt whisky from the rugged isle of Orkney is a true representation of Scotland's coastal character. Distilled in 2009 and matured in a first-fill bourbon barrel, it boasts a rich and peaty essence that lingers on the palate. Bottled at a robust 50% ABV by the independent bottler Decadent Drinks, this whisky captures the essence of the island's windswept landscapes and the salty tang of the North Sea air. The charming label, a recreation of an old 1900s advertising poster, pays homage to the long-retired Old Orkney whisky brand, adding a touch of nostalgia to this exceptional spirit. With its harmonious blend of coastal flavors and robust peatiness, this whisky is a true gem for those seeking an authentic taste of Scotland's distilling heritage.
