The Hunter Laing Scarabus Islay Single Malt Batch Strength is a more intense, even more powerful version of the popular Scarabus Islay Single Malt, bottled at a higher alcohol strength of 57% vol. The name "Scarabus" refers to an area on the island of Islay known as a "rocky place" and reflects the rough, wild character of this whisky. The motifs on the bottle were inspired by John Francis Campbell, a Scottish scholar and author who documented Scotland's rich history and culture.

Only selected Scarabus Islay single malt casks are used for the Scarabus Batch Strength, which ensure greater intensity and depth. Despite the higher alcohol content, the typical sweet and peaty character of Scarabus is retained, making the whisky both full-bodied and complex. The finish is refined with an additional full-bodied flavour and a longer-lasting aftertaste.
