Out of stock
A superb Islay blended malt bottled by Douglas Laing. This limited release (only 3000 bottles) is a 26 year old, 1992 vintage whisky, the second in a three part vintage series. Bottled at cask strength, without filtering and with natural colour. Thumbs up!
Whiskies used in this blend have been sourced from Ardbeg, Caol Ila, Bowmore and rather interestingly, Port Ellen.
Mature and gentle on the nose, this whisky has aromas of smoked and cured barbecue meats, leather, beeswax and varnish and a saline note reminiscent of fresh oysters and mussels.
The palate is sweet and there's a creamy textured mouthfeel and then a of peat. Charcoal, campfire, bonfire, soot and pepper all give this whisky some serious Islay weight and power.
The finish continues with that warm and sweet feeling, with creates a lovely length that tails of beautifully with sweet charred savoriness. This is a top Islay whisky worth every penny!

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep bronze-gold amber with a warm, sun-kissed honey glow and a subtle coppery sheen, rich and inviting in the glass.
Nose
Mature and gentle on the nose, with smoke-kissed aromas of cured barbecue meats, leather and beeswax, a trace of varnish, and a saline whisper of fresh oysters and mussels; a refined peat scent that speaks of Islay's coastal power.
Palate
Sweet with a creamy mouthfeel, then a bold wave of peat. Charcoal, campfire and soot mingle with pepper, imparting true Islay heft. The finish is warm and sweet, tapering to a long, charred, savory smoke.
Finish
Warm and sweet, the finish threads a long, graceful tail of peat. Charred notes of campfire and soot mingle with honeyed sweetness, finishing with peppery maritime savor that lingers with refined, smoky softness.
