12 Year Old Orkneyinga Legacy Single Malt Scotch Whisky

9.3

The “Orkneyinga” was a 2018 limited release to help raise money to protect historic sites on the island. It’s basically a blend of ex-Sherry, American and European oak barrels aged for a minimum of 12 years. Notes of light peat, honey comb, flowers, and cashews. The finish is long and awesome. About 5000 bottles were produced. — 6 months ago

A wonderful gift from Chris and Leslie’s trip to Scotland. Perfect balance of sweet and dry. — 7 years ago

Finally found Odin and it does not disappoint. Probably the best of the Valhalla collection slightly ahead of Freya. — 8 years ago

Orkney Islands Single Cask Malt Scotch Whisky

I don’t often post whisky but then I do, it’s because they’re pretty special. This is no exception. A rather unusual barrel pick, this 14-year Highland Park was aged in what appears to be a sherry cask (color, aroma, flavor) and bottled at cask strength. Notes of cola, coffee, potpourri, smoke and pepper with a rich, fuller body. I called it the Dr. Pepper of Scotch. The finish is forever long. Sadly, I’ll probably never get to experience this again. — 3 years ago
