Douglas Laing, a leading independent scotch whisky blender and bottler, has released limited-edition Rock Oyster Cask Strength blended malt scotch whisky (57.4% abv).

Managing director Fred Laing said: “For Rock Oyster Cask Strength, I’ve selected a range of casks from the islands and lovingly vatted them together to create a blast of sea air on the nose and a tempestuously oceanic storm on the palate. Anticipate a big peat hit full of Islay phenols, iodine and coal dust, with a shake of pepper softening to a distinct honey sweetness from the Arran casks. The Isle of Jura brings waves of citrus and barley.”
