    O thou, my Muse! Guid auld Scotch drink, Whether through wimplin' worms thou jink, Or, richly brown, ream o'er the brink, In glorious faem, Inspire me, till I lisp and wink, To sing thy name! Robert Burns - Scotch Drink (1785) Whisky The name derives from the Gaelic "usquebaugh", meaning "Water of Life". This was phonetically transformed first into "usky", then "whisky-bar" and eventually Whisky. Scotland has internationally protected the term "Scotch". For a whisky to be labelled Scotch it has to be both produced and matured in Scotland. The maturation must take place in oak casks for a period of at least 3 years and one day and it may not be bottled if it is less than 40% alcohol by volume. Legend has it that St Patrick introduced distilling to Ireland in the fifth century AD and that the secrets travelled with the Dalriadic Scots when they arrived in Kintyre around AD500. St Patrick probably acquired the knowledge in Spain and France, countries that might have known the art of distilling at that time. Types of whisky There are two main categories of whisky – single and blended. Single means that all of the product is from a single distillery, while blended means that the product is composed of whiskies from two or more distilleries. Traditional practices define five types: Single malt whisky is 100% malted barley whisky from one distillery, distilled in batches in pot stills. Single grain whisky is distilled at a single distillery from water and malted barley, with or without whole grains of other cereals and must not meet the requirements of a single malt whisky.

  • The Orkney Hotel Whisky Menu
    THE ORKNEY HOTEL WHISKY MENU ORKNEY MALTS Orkney’s rugged and windswept character has shaped some of Scotland’s most distinct and warming malt whiskies. Highland Park 12yr (40%) From Scotland’s northernmost distillery comes a full flavoured Malt. With a nose of malt, sherry and peat, a palate of smoke, heather and other earthy elements. Highland Park 15yr (43%) Highland Park 15 has a remarkable complex nose with notes of camphor, peat and citrus fruits and flowers. The drying sensation on the finish leaves a rich smoky feeling and the immediate desire to refill your glass. Highland Park 18yr (43%) Burnished gold in colour with a rich, mature oak and aromatic smoke aroma. It has a rich, full flavour, honey and peat taste and a soft, round and long finish. Highland Park 21yr (47.5%) Drawing its incredible character from predominantly American oak casks which have been seasoned with sherry, this 21 year old is a truly dynamic whisky with an intensely fruity and spicy centre, surrounded by complex layers of candied orange peel, dark chocolate and rich, slightly drier smoke. A malt that rewards patience and delivers experience like no other. Highland Park 25yr (50.7%) With its golden dark red colour and very rich, mature oak, chocolate fudge aroma, this whisky is universally acclaimed, by the critics as one of the great single malts. It has a full, rich burst of flavours, soft honey and nutty toffee and a long and surprisingly sweet finish for its age. Highland Park 30yr (48.1%) 30 years ago after deciding to lay down the casks that would go on to become the heart of this exceptional whisky and over these 3 decades, the whisky maturing inside them has developed an outstanding balance, with a seductive sweetness and extremely delicate smoke.
