Scapa distillery is a Scotch whisky distillery on The Mainland of Orkney, Scotland on the shore of Scapa Flow near the town of Kirkwall. Scapa is the second most northern whisky distillery in Scotland, half a mile south of the Highland Park Distillery.
The distillery has one wash still and one spirit still producing a single malt whisky. It produces an especially honey flavoured whisky, and less peaty than most Island Whiskies.[citation needed] This is because, though the water at the source is peaty, it gets transported to the distillery through pipelines to avoid more contact with the peat. Furthermore, the malt is not dried over peat smoke.
