Nase: Vanille, Honig, Butterscotch und Malz. Etwas Sahnekaramell und verschiedene Getreidearomen, das Malz zieht sich mit einer klaren Linie durch den Whisky. Dazu eine gewisse Süße mit getrockneten Orangenscheiben.
Gaumen: Malzig mit Zitronenaromen und leichten mineralischen Anklängen. Wirkt etwas cremig und delikat im Mund. Weniger Vanille, mehr Honig und Heidekraut.
Abgang: Mittellang und deutlich intensiver als der Gaumen, wirkt auch viel trockener, mit Malz, Meersalz und Gewürzen.
The distillery is located on the island of Orkney directly on Scapa Flow. Founded in 1885, it has always been in the shadow of the neighbouring distillery Highland Park. The water used at Lingro Nurn is already so peaty that only unpeated malt is used. In 1994, the distillery was shut down for 10 years, but since November 2004 it has been in production again. Only ex-Bourbon barrels are used for storage.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
