I just found a local source of Scapa 14. I like the 12, and really liked the 25. Anyone here know the Scapa 14?

I had some Scapa 14 a year or three back and I would imagine what you have found is a similar product.. Was just a little darker (because of the bourbon casks they use) and a little better than the 12. But I wouldn't pay a lot more for 14yo than I would for 12. Worth a little more, but only a little more.

Well, they only want $45.00 for the bottle, so sounds like a winner. I'll report my impressions, although my tasting notes are nowhere near sophisticated.

Go for it then. That's about GBP 26 and a good price here. Don't worry about tasting inexperience. Just put down what you find. They'll still be of interest

Allied took over Scapa recently and they are currently shining up the destillery, and theres supposed to be a new visitor centre and all
Allied have chosen to bottle Scapa as a 14y and I suppose its the one you have. I havent tried it yet but it should be similar to the old 12y version
