Distillery: Orkney Distilling
This is the fourth addition to the Old Orkney series from Decadent Drinks. These occasional bottlings showcase top examples of old-school, generously aged Orcadian single malt, and here we have a marvellous 25 year old expression. Distilled in 1999, the whisky finished this maturation with a six-year stay in a very, very old first-fill ex-bodega oloroso sherry butt before bottling at cask strength.
Old Orkney 25 Year Old 1999 (Decadent Drinks) Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 700ML Tasting Notes
Nose: It has very pleasant and lovely aromas.
Palate: A very pleasant, rich and smooth taste in the mouth. Lovely texture.
Finish: Elegant long-lasting aftertaste.
Distillery Information
There’s plenty of distilling heritage on the island of Orkney, but the northern Scottish island isn’t only home to Highland Park and Scapa Distillery. Orkney Distilling also makes a delightful range of flavoured gins under the Kirkjuvagr brand. This means ‘Church Bay’ in Old Norse, inspired by a time when Orkney was emerging as a seat of power in the Viking Empire and the Norsemen would sail their longships into Kirkjuvagr, which over the centuries grew into the islands’ capital, Kirkwall. The symbol on the bottle top is a Vegvisir, or Viking compass, which helped the Norsemen find their way into Kirkwall (or Kirkjuvagr) and beyond. Neat, right? All Kirkjuvagr gin is made in small batches using traditional copper stills. Angelica is a defining ingredient after the brand discovered a local legend that spoke of a variety of Angelica brought to the islands by Norsemen centuries ago, which can still be found growing wild today. It complements a distinctive blend of local botanicals, including ramanas rose, burnet rose, and borage, as well as traditional Orkney bere barley.
