This bottling of a blended malt by independent bottler Douglas Laing was specially released to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the company as part of the Remarkable Regional Malts series. Whiskies from the islands of Orkney, Arran, Jura and Islay were used, all of which were matured for at least 14 years, with the majority being aged in former sherry casks.
Islay is the most famous of the Scotch whisky islands. It is often referred to as the queen among them. The majority of Islay's single malts have a wonderfully peaty, smoky, strong flavour - flavours for which Islay whisky is so loved.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
