A somewhat mysterious single malt from Douglas Laing's Old Particular range. This one comes from "Probably Orkney's Finest Distillery", though with the very small number of distilleries on Orkney, you might be able to figure out which one it was from. The whisky itself was distilled in June 1999 and bottled in August 2020 after 21 years of maturation in a refill hogshead. 236 bottles were produced.
Smoky peanut shells and rock pool salinity, plus a waft of ripe apple.
Toffee popcorn, salt and pepper crisps, vegetal peat.
A smidge of orange peel sweetness arrives late. Still richly smoky.
