$63.69
A limited edition Blended Malt created from the islands of Arran, Jura, Islay and Orkney. 46%.
Producer Description: "Rock Island 10 Years Old is a beautifully aged, Island “Vatted” Malt, that is proudly offered without colouring or chill-filtration. Bottled at 46% alcohol strength, Rock Island 10 Years Old marries together Single Malts from Islay, Arran, Orkney & Jura, resulting in a Whisky entailing wave after wave of sea salt, wood embers, gentle smoke and orange peel."
Producer Tasting Note
"The nose is initially barley-rich and buttery, developing to wave-soaked rocks with gentle peat smoke and citrus fruits. The palate bursts with a beachy quality - sea spray, black pepper and damp ash. The finish goes on and on, with wave after wave of wood embers, orange peel and gentle spice."

Rock Island Year of the Dragon

Limited Edition Whisky bottlings celebrating the Chinese New Year are so hot right now, guys! Move over, Johnnie Walker and Kavalan - Douglas Laing is getting in on the action with the Rock Island Year of the Dragon Edition.
Bottled at a pleasantly robust 54.8% ABV, this edition of Rock Island features a marriage of single malts from the Scottish Isles of Arran, Islay, Jura, and Orkney. Evan was somewhat disappointed at whisky from Mull not being included, but his mood improved thanks to the use of heavily charred casks for finishing.
From The Producer
