Described by bottler Douglas Laing as the "lip-smacking success story of the magic that can happen when sweet meets peat", Rock Oyster Scotch blended malt pairs Island salt-citrus character with the richness of sherry butts. A nautical theme presides over the handsome bottle and label, which we also enjoy.
Nose: Its sweetly peated nature is immediately apparent, along with heaps of dark fruit.
Palate: Sea salt whipped up on a sea breeze, warm Christmas spices, a cereal quality and that gentle peat smoke. Tasty.
Finish: Long and saline, balanced with those dark fruits.
Overall: A complex drop - sweet and peat are a match made in heaven.

Having known Rock Oyster original and loved it, I just had to try it when I found it unexpectedly in a Hong Kong off license. Shery meets Saline/Mild peat. Very interesting. I love Douglas Laing creations.Evis

This is my personal favorite Douglas Laing expression. The sweet sherry influence (dark fruits and fruitcake) elevates the already worthy Rock Oyster to a new level. The mix of the aforementioned sherry influences with Rock Oyster's typical briny (seasalt/coastal), peaty cereal qualities are absolutely amazing.

A well balanced whisky. Elegant peat on one side, embraced by aromatic tones of sherry on the other side.

Honestly one of the best whiskies I've ever bought. A perfect mix of maritime flavours with heavy sherry. I love every drop of it and can't praise it evough
