Up for auction is a very rare bottle of Scapa 14 Year Old, a single malt highly sought after by collectors as it has been discontinued for over a decade. Distilled in the remote Orkney Islands, this expression represents the distillery’s "golden era" before the transition to No Age Statement (NAS) releases. ​Condition and Collector's Notes: This bottle is a vintage find that shows its age, making it an authentic piece for display or historical interest: ​Fill Level: As shown in the high-resolution photos, the liquid level has significantly dropped over the years (natural evaporation/low fill). ​Seal: Features the original Italian tax stamp ("Acquavite di Cereali"), confirming its official import and era. ​Packaging: Original tube included. Please note: a faint scent of whisky is detectable inside the tube, indicating micro-evaporation through the cork. The metal lid shows signs of oxidation, adding to its vintage character. ​Distillery Trivia: Scapa is one of the few remaining Scottish distilleries to use a Lomond Still for its wash distillation. This unique setup allowed the 14-year-old expression to develop a much fruitier and creamier body compared to its peated island neighbors. It is famous for its "heather-honey" sweetness and delicate maritime saltiness—a flavor profile that is no longer found in modern bottlings.
