Scapa Glansa – Old Norse for shinning storm laden skies -
Is a celebration of contrasts, inspired by the sanctuary of our distillery on Scapa Flow and the storm laden skies and seas that often surround it.
Taking our signature smooth honey single malt, which is aged in American oak, this expression is then rested in peated casks creating richness and depth, giving way to a subtle smoky finish.
Scapa is an artisanal single malt forged by the elements of Orkney; a remote island of natural contrasts. Crafted by a small team of six dedicated artisans at the manually operated Scapa distillery since its creation in 1885.
