The Maltman Whisky Secret Orkney 16 y.o.
The Secret Orkney 16 Years Old (2008/2025) from Meadowside Blending's The Maltman series is a fascinating example of an independent bottling that plays on the mystery of its origin. As there are only two major distilleries on the Orkney Islands (Highland Park and Scapa), the “secret” is usually an open one – connoisseurs almost always guess Highland Park based on the profile.
This Maltman is an “island dream” for fans of strong, honest single casks. It offers the typical DNA of the Orkneys – heather, honey, and gentle smoke – combined with the depth of 16 years of maturation in a sherry cask.
62.8% ABV (cask strength) Non-chill filtered Cask type: Refill sherry hogshead Cask number: 62 Number of bottles: 302
