Which Orkney distillery does this originate from? Scapa or Highland Park? It is probably HP sauce, but... hmm.
Regardless, the whisky was distilled somewhere in the Orkney Isles in January 2007. It was matured in an Oloroso Hogshead and bottled at 17 years old and 57.9%. 302 bottles total.

The second from final release in the Whisky Sponge range is a multi-vintage Glen Moray, marrying a 1990 refill hogshead with a 1992 2nd fill sherry hogshead, bottled at 32 years and a cask strength of 51.8%. 89.83pts Whiskybase
Producer Description
"This is Whisky Sponge Edition No.99: the Penultimate Sponge! Like Edition No.1, it’s a sexy old Glen Moray. However, for this one, we did some well-honed Decadent Drinks cask mixology and muddled together a refill hogshead of 1990 Glen Moray with a 2nd fill sherry hogshead of 1991 Glen Moray. We left that brew to stew inside the sherry hoggie for several months, then bottled the mix at natural cask strength. It’s fruity, opulent, decadent and tastes like the set furniture from 2001 Space Odyssey draped with all the cardigans in rural Englandshire. Please enjoy this whisky while trawling this website and reading every single rear label on every single bottling we ever did. The first person to spot the cheekily concealed secret to quantum fusion technology contained within will win a t-shirt and a bespoke insult from the Sponge."

Bit of an anomaly on the label for this one. It says 'Speyside,' but Glen Garioch is actually a Highland distillery. Surely that alone makes this collectible, aye? (we kid)
This is a wee'un, really, coming in at just 8 years. But it speaks to the ethos of Iain Croucher and the team at North Star: if you have something that you feel has come of age, bottle it, age statement on the bottle be damned. This cheeky wee GLen Garioch was matured in a refill Hogshead, before being finished in ex-Oloroso. Only 260 bottles, a handful of which have made their way to KWM.
Natural colour, non-chill filtered, and bottled at 53.3% abv.
