The Hunter Laing SCARABUS 30 Years Old Islay Single Malt is an exceptionally matured bottling from Hunter Laing and is one of the rarest representatives of the Scarabus series. With an age of 30 years, this Islay single malt stands for depth, maturity and the calm elegance of many years of cask ageing. Bottled at 43.6% vol. in a 0.7-litre bottle, this edition embodies Hunter Laing's philosophy of presenting whiskies of strong character with minimal intervention and maximum focus on the cask and distillate.

The Scarabus brand is known for its mysterious Islay character, which deliberately avoids naming the distillery. Instead, the focus is on the unmistakable style of the island, characterised by maritime influences, smoke and maturity. The three decades of maturation have given this single malt a special balance, in which structure, cask character and distillate character harmonise with one another. This bottling is aimed at experienced Islay lovers and collectors who appreciate old whiskies with depth, history and a clear origin.
