This single cask bottling of an 18-year-old, unnamed single malt from the Orkney Islands was produced by the independent bottler Elixir Distillers as part of The Whisky Trail series. The whisky was distilled in 2006, matured in an ex-sherry butt and bottled in 2024 in a run of 662 bottles.
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.
