Douglas Laing Timorous Beastie 10 Years Old Small Batch Release 46.8% vol. 0.7 l in a gift box online kaufen

The Douglas Laing Timorous Beastie 10 Years Old Small Batch Release 46.8% ABV 0.7 l is a characterful blended malt Scotch whisky from the Scottish Highlands, which brings together the diverse styles of renowned Highland distilleries. It is produced by the independent Scottish bottler Douglas Laing & Co., which has been renowned since 1948 for its carefully selected whisky blends. Only selected single malt whiskies are used for this 10-year-old Highland blended malt, including distillates from the well-known distilleries Glen Garioch, Dalmore and Glengoyne. The blending is carried out in small batches to preserve the distinct character of the malt whiskies it contains. As part of the renowned Remarkable Regional Malts Collection, the Timorous Beastie represents the diverse whisky tradition of the Scottish Highlands.


The name ‘Timorous Beastie’ pays homage to the famous poem ‘To a Mouse’ by Scotland’s national poet Robert Burns, which centres on a shy little field mouse. In contrast to this reserved namesake, the whisky presents itself as a self-assured Highland blend. The 10 Years Old Small Batch Release is bottled at 46.8% ABV, without chill filtration and without added colouring, thereby preserving the natural characteristics of the distillates used. The combination of Highland single malts matured for at least ten years, traditional blending and natural bottling makes this Scottish blended malt whisky an intriguing speciality for lovers of classic Highland whiskies. It is presented in a 0.7-litre bottle with a matching gift box, which emphasises the premium quality of this bottling.

Tasting Note

Colour: Warm golden yellow with pale amber highlights.

Nose: Distinct sweetness with creamy vanilla, delicate honey and floral notes, accompanied by malted barley and a pleasantly warming spiciness.

The Douglas Laing Timorous Beastie 10 Years Old reveals its balanced aroma particularly well when enjoyed neat at room temperature, ideally in a tulip-shaped nosing glass. A few drops of still water can further enhance the floral, malty and spicy facets of this Highland blended malt. Recommended food pairings include vanilla panna cotta, honey cake, toasted almonds or a moist raisin cake, whose sweet and nutty elements harmonise superbly with the whisky. Mature Cheddar, caramelised walnuts or desserts featuring fudge and meringue also make for delightful combinations. The gift box also makes this ten-year-old Highland whisky an attractive gift idea for whisky lovers.
