Douglas Laing's super value blended Scotch whisky gets a smoky makeover here thanks to the master blender pairing sweet single grain whiskies with a high proportion of whisky from predominately Islay distilleries.
Rich, earthy smoke drifts through golden barley, honey, and apple peel.
Charred oak and campfire ash are balanced by butterscotch and citrus.
Vanilla and oak spice linger.
Great value and definitely worth trying if you appreciate a blend. I enjoyed it neat and with a drip of water. Is it worth five stars? Yes, on value alone: for this price, you don't expect something so smooth and rich. I'll be ordering again.
This is a great smoky peaty dram for drinking and enjoying. A great amount of depth and flavour - I’ll be back for another bottle it’s excellent value for money.
