SKY OF ORKNEY

Intense & Balanced

Long days, long nights, intense sunsets and unbelievable auroras—the Sky of Orkney brings drama and beauty in equal measure. Likewise, this whisky is intensely aromatic, rich and carefully balanced to allow all its layers of flavour to shine, with a natural deep amber colour direct from the cask. 

Available to purchase exclusively from Travel Retail and duty-free outlets.

GTR-18-FLAVOUR

The flavour

A breath of Orkney fresh air. Heathered Orkney peat on the nose with a floral zing of lemon zest. Black cherries, cocoa nibs, honey and peat smoke follow on the palate offset by just a hint of pistachio. This one will linger with a spicy, peaty finish. 

THE CRAFT

The craft

The dramatic fruity and spicy flavours of Sky of Orkney come from whiskies matured in first-fill, sherry seasoned European and American oak casks. Refill casks mellow and smooth out the complex flavours, adding balance and nuttiness for a lingering finish. 

GTR-18-STORIES

The stories

In Orkney, our northern latitude makes for truly beautiful skies, with long, colour-soaked sunsets in summer and a chance to see the otherworldly Northern Lights in winter. We like to think these awe-inspiring views are reflected in every whisky we make at our distillery in Kirkwall—each one offering layers of vivid flavour and a long, satisfying finish.

Enjoy it with...

A hunk of good quality chocolate is a simple and delicious bite alongside this intense whisky. If you’re after something a bit more adventurous, try jerk chicken: its punchy combination of fruity sweetness and intense spiciness will pair especially well with this one.
