Matured in a high proportion of first-fill sherry seasoned European and American oak casks, this superb 18 Year Old single malt pays tribute to our five keystones of production and presents a sophisticated medley of ripe cherries dusted with bittersweet cocoa, freshly harvested honeycomb and candied orange peel. There's a whisper of Orkney's salty seaspray in the aromatic peat smoke.
Tasting Notes: Clear, bright, burnished gold. Flavors of cherries, dark chocolate, toffee, marzipan, heather honey, and aromatic peat smoke. Try with meaty fish like mahi mahi or swordfish cooked with Indian spices (think cardamom and ginger - surprisingly good!), cold meats with ginger chutney, and citrus fruit puddings.

This Scotch is a big boy-look for assertive, brawny flavors and alcohol burn. However, it still has nuance. Aging in Sherry oak casks draws out a dark amber cast and rich caramel, honey and dried-fruit aromas. The flavor grows more interesting with repeated sips-piquant peaty notes are joined by deep, complex toffee.
