Douglas Laing

World-renowned Glasgow-based Douglas Laing & Co independent bottlers and blenders.

The company was first established in 1948 by the father of Fred and Stewart Laing.

Fred and Stewart have now been in charge for over 25 years and upheld the tradition their farther laid down back in 1948.

They have not just sat on their fathers laurels but have successfully expanded the Douglas Laing Range into the world market, using some of the vast stocks of Single Malt Whisky built up over the last 50 years..

Below are the Tasting notes for...

PROBABLY SPEYSIDE’S FINEST 43 YEAR OLD

Nose : Orange pith, spice, cedar-wood plus late leaf smoke.

Palate: Carries a big peppery spice hit + a mulled wine style.

Finish: Soft and mellow with dried fruit/jam + gingerbread. (Fred)

Douglas Laing Old Malt Cask Range

Old Malt Cask a preferred strength of 50% alc/vol (referred to as the Golden Strength by old die hards) is maintained as we wholeheartedly believe this strength creates a fine, round, full quality for various Malts when taken “neat.”

Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Official aged Glenrothes can be ridiculously expensive. This is a great change to try a sherried example with a bit of age behind it for much more reasonable price. The colour on this one looks stunning. Expect great things.

If this is anything like many of the recent 1990/91 Rosebanks that have been popping up then it should be pretty spectacular. Rosebank seems to have been making top class spirit right up to the bitter end.

Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky

There have been quite a few well aged Strathmills popping up over the last couple of years and, unsurprisingly enough, they are all pretty fantastic. Like most lighter spirits they age very well to a luscious fruity glory. A fantastic price for a 36 year old whisky.
