Douglas Laing’s Rock Island Mezcal Cask Edition carries a classic maritime character derived from the Single Cask, Single Malts that are artfully combined to create this Island Whisky. For this Limited-Edition bottling, a new depth of character has been added, by finishing the spirit in Ex Mezcal Casks for a 12-month period, creating a truly unique spirit with a heightened smokiness and an amplified salty character. Nose: Opens with Scottish sea salt and honeycomb, roasted Mexican agave, tangy citrus fruits and an earthy, lightly smoked quality. Palate: Barley-sweet and super smooth, moving to an earthy, light smoked style alongside barbecued meats. Finish: Oceanic and elegant, with citrus fruits, juicy blackberries and honeycomb.
