Island Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Bottled by: Gordon & MacPhail 70cl / 56.4%
One of a pair of 17-year-old Scapa 2005 vintage sister single casks bottled by Gordon & MacPhail exclusively for the UK as part of their Connoisseurs Choice Cask Strength series.
This Scapa 2005 17-year-old came from Cask #483, a first fill ex-bourbon barrel that yielded 186 bottles bottled at its natural strength of 56.4%. A natural teenage Scapa bottled without colouring or chill filtration - this should be sensational stuff from a distillery we sadly see very little of nowadays.
Please note that this product is available only to members of our VIP Club and is Strictly Maximum 1 Bottle per Customer.
