Douglas Laing

Bottled to celebrate Douglas Laing’s platinum (70th) anniversary, this is a single-cask Port Ellen 35 Year Old with, as the indie bottler puts it, a ‘mouth-puckering palate of salt, tar, phenol, coal dust and mocha’.

Port Ellen was the favourite whisky of Douglas Laing’s founder and this edition, of which just 273 bottles are available, is a fitting tribute to his achievements.
