Producer Description
"To continue our Old Orkney brand, we wanted to find a cask that was suitably different from the previous one. This 2004 refill hogshead of Orkney Malt was just the ticket, less peaty than O.O.1, this is more about super classical Orkney heather honey and coastal freshness, with just a wee peck of peat in the background. A gorgeous and very classical example of this rugged old Orcadian Viking.
"This is O.O.2, our second bottling in our Old Orkney series.
"For this bottling we selected a 2004 refill hogshead which we’ve bottled at 19 years of age and with several degrees reduction to 53%. We felt this magnified the coastal and classical heather honey notes of this Orkney single malt. This is slightly less peaty than O.O.1, but no less evocative or powerful, and indeed the extra maturity brings a richness and depth to this whisky that is hugely satisfying."
