The Scarabus Sherry Cask Edition is a full-bodied Islay single malt Scotch whisky from Hunter Laing – an independent bottler with a strong reputation in the world of Scotch whisky. This special edition was created specifically for lovers of smoky whiskies with sherry notes and impresses with an intense, dark-fruity yet peaty character. It was matured exclusively in ex-sherry casks, which complements the typical Islay smokiness with alluring notes of dried fruit, spices and dark chocolate.

The name ‘Scarabus’ originates from Old Norse and roughly translates as ‘a rocky place’, which perfectly suits Islay’s wild coastal landscape. Behind the striking, mystical bottle design lies a whisky that delights connoisseurs with its depth and expressiveness. At 46% ABV, non-chill-filtered and unadulterated, this bottling remains true to its origins and offers an authentic tasting experience.

Tasting Note

Colour: Dark amber with a reddish sheen.

Nose: Intensely smoky, accompanied by dried figs, sweet peat smoke, raisins, leather and a hint of cinnamon.

Palate: Full-bodied and well-structured with sherry sweetness, dark chocolate, spicy wood, smoky malt and dried dates.

The Scarabus Sherry Cask Edition is ideal for enjoying neat at room temperature or with a few drops of water to bring out the complex sherry notes alongside the peaty smoke even more clearly.
