Blended Malt Whisky made by Douglas Laing in The Islands, Scotland
How It’s Made
An extraordinary encapsulation of the very best Single Malts distilled on the glorious islands of Islay, Arran, Jura and Orkney (amongst others), Rock Island is a subtle, smoky and sweet celebration of the sea. Part of the Remarkable Regional Malts range, the ultimate distillation of Scotland’s Malt Whisky Regions.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Wave soaked rocks and a salty oceanic fresh influence. Palate: Subtle, carrying soft and rather sweet peat paralleled with smoke, honey, damp ash, liquorice and late pepper. Finish: All of what went before is neatly replicated in the moreish finish.
