Rock Island Mezcal Cask Edition
Douglas Laing has finished its Rock Island blended malt Scotch whisky in mezcal casks – which is rather intriguing indeed! The whisky itself is made with a host of whiskies from Scotland's whisky producing islands, including Jura, Orkney, Arran, and Islay. After blending, it was given a 12 month finishing period in mezcal casks, bolstering the smoky, earthy notes of the whisky. 1,500 bottles were produced.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Sea salt and cracked black pepper, with earthy smoke lingering.
Palate
Barbeque smokiness, with layers of peppercorn, barley, and a zesty hint of gooseberry.
Finish
Rich honey and juicy blackberry, with lasting toasty smoke.
