Douglas Laing
Scotland
A limited edition 18 year old variation on Douglas Laing's Rock Oyster Island blended malt, made exclusively with whiskies distilled on Arran, Jura, Islay and Orkney. We told ourselves that we wouldn't made a B-52s reference when writing this bottling note, and we're sticking to that promise.
Full-bodied coastal smoke, with hints of sugared peels and peppery oak underneath.
A good balance of peat richness and vanilla-forward sweetness. Subtle minerality.
A burst of heather honey appears late on the finish.
[HP] and Arran taking center stage in the 18 year old. The [Caol Ila] I get in the NAS I do not get here. Very light peat, Highland Park level. pronounced bitterness, bitter oranges blood oranges, peaches, pineapples, grapefruit, pomegranate green pepper, black pepper honey and treacle marzipan medium dark chocolate, coffee, cocoa powder, dusty, gets very rich and chocolaty that un-chill filtered frozen yogurt note bit of waxy malt not salty but has kind of a fresh sea air presence - Half a teaspoon of water, give it 35 minutes new bottle very well vatted
Incredible whisky. Transports you immediately to a coastal environment - waves, ocean breeze, slight smoke and a brown sugar sweetness. I will be back for another bottle and keen to try the sherried one too next time. Nom nom nom
Yikes - I'm going to buy another one. This is incredible (looks good too!)
