With the Rock Island 16 Years Old Sherry Edition, the independent bottling house Douglas Laing presents a particularly characterful variant of its maritime blended malt series. This small batch blended malt Scotch whisky exclusively combines single malts from the Scottish islands of Islay, Jura, Arran and Orkney, each of which has matured for at least 16 years. The additional maturation in finely selected sherry casks gives the bottling a deep, fruity complexity that harmonises perfectly with the typical coastal smokiness.

The Rock Island series stands for authentic, unadorned whiskies with island character. This sherry edition is also non-chill-filtered, bottled in natural colour and at 46.9% vol. brought to optimum drinking strength - strong but accessible. The elegant gift box emphasises the high-quality character and makes it ideal for lovers of smoky, matured whiskies with a fruity influence.
