Douglas Laing
Scotland
Douglas Laing's Rock Island bottles the epitome of the Scottish Islands. The blend marries a plethora of Island whiskies, with malts from Islay, Arran, Orkney and Jura. The whisky has been bottled at a rather specific 46.8% ABV, and of course without colouring or chillfiltration. If you think this sounds all a bit familiar, the blended malt was previously dubbed 'Rock Oyster', though the name was changed because it turns out there's an awful lot of people who don't like oysters. Not to worry, it's the exact same great maritime whisky!
Wind-swept beaches, coastal peat and a hint of ash, complimented by touches of green fruit.
Yet more sea breeze, with oat cake crumbs, growing spicy notes of cracked black pepper and a deft whiff of peat smoke. Hints of vanilla here and there.
Salinity lasts on the finish along with peppery warmth.
£5.10 - £46.67
Wow! Beautifully blended. There are peaty, smoky notes but that is not the whole story. Gorgeous mouth feel (no chill filtering makes a difference). Touches of oak, cinnamon and heather are all there. Nicely done.
This is stunning!! Its the ocean in a bottle and would go so well with a plate of Rock Oysters. One of the Standouts from World Whisky Day
This is a very nice whisky for the price, slight smoke smooth taste with a very subtle toffee flavour.
Very pleasantly surprised. Very smooth. Salinity there. Smoke is subtle. This is now in my top 10 whiskies.
Rare for me to find a whisky such as this, especially a blended malt. Very smooth. I love it for the finish, long and not bitter. This is honestly exceptional.
