Intense enjoyment at a great price

Nosing: Delicate smoke and heather combine with dark fruits like plums and blackberries. Floral accents and a light honey sweetness complement the profile, along with spicy nutmeg and vanilla.

Palate: Intense and complex with creamy toffees, caramel, and roasted hazelnuts. Dark berries meet orange peels, accompanied by gentle oak spice, minimal peat smoke, and a fine herbal note.

Finish: Long-lasting with lingering honey sweetness, dried fruits, and subtle smoke. Nutty hints and spicy nutmeg fade slowly.

This Orkney (HP) 2010 - 14 years from 1st Fill Oloroso Sherry Butts & Bourbon Hogsheads brings a powerful punch to your glass – and at a price that makes connoisseurs take a second look. Those seeking pronounced aromas, honest craftsmanship, and a fair price-performance ratio will surely find satisfaction in this single malt from the popular 100 Proof series by Signatory. 

Between heather and sherry dreams

Right from the first sniff, delicate smoky notes and spicy heather rise from the glass, evoking images of northern wilderness. Then, a play of aromas unfolds with spices and dark fruits, followed by toffee, honey, and a touch of vanilla.

On the palate, the island whisky presents itself intensely, full-bodied, and varied. While the bourbon casks provide creamy-sweet accents, the first-fill Oloroso sherry casks deliver plenty of fruit and spice as expected. These manifest as dark forest berries, orange peel, oak wood, and crunchy nuts. Above all, a hint of smoke and a pleasant herbal note linger.

The long finish brings spicy honey, dried fruits, and an elegant veil of smoke. With a pinch of nutmeg and roasted nuts, this noble drop bids you farewell.

Maturation with character – natural and powerful

This 14-year-old single malt hails from the legendary Orkney Islands – a region known for robust, balanced whiskies with a maritime soul. We cannot disclose which distillery the Scotch comes from, but there are only two distilleries on Orkney, and it is not Scapa.

With natural color and a variety of aromas, the Scotch comes to your glass, as it has not been colored or chill-filtered. Bottled at an impressive 57.1% ABV, it feels controlledly intense yet accessible. You may also add a few drops of still water to your whisky at this strength. This will soften it a bit and offer you new impressions time and again.
