Rock Island – Tequila Cask 70cl

Rock Island Tequila Cask Edition – Douglas Laing

This limited-edition Island Blended Malt (Combination of 3+ Single Malts) brings together whiskies from Islay, Arran, Jura and Orkney, before a finishing period in carefully selected ex-Tequila casks. Bright aromas of citrus zest, crème brûlée and gentle bonfire smoke lead into a rich palate of crisp apple, caramel, creamy vanilla and sweet peat. The finish is long and memorable, combining toasted oak, brown sugar and lingering coastal salinity, where Scotland’s maritime character meets a vibrant Mexican twist. Bottled at 48% ABV, with natural colour and without chill filtration.
