Douglas Laing SCALLYWAG The Winter Edition 53,9% Vol. 0,7l in Giftbox

Douglas Laing Scallywag The Winter Edition 53.9% vol. 0.7 l in a gift box The Douglas Laing SCALLYWAG The Winter Edition is a robust, limited-edition special release from the popular Scallywag range, aimed at connoisseurs of intense, wintry flavours. This Speyside Blended Malt Scotch Whisky combines selected malt whiskies from Speyside and is bottled at natural cask strength at 53.9% vol. It is bottled uncoloured and non-chill-filtered, thereby fully preserving its structure, depth and natural cask colour. Presented in a high-quality gift box, this edition emphasises its appeal as both a collector’s item and a gift. The defining feature of this Winter Edition is its finish in orange wine casks from Jerez de la Frontera in Spain. This special choice of cask combines the classic, fruit-rich elegance of Speyside malt Scotch whisky with the fresh, citrus-driven aromas of orange wine. The result is a multi-layered whisky that harmoniously interweaves rich fruit, marmalade-like sweetness and warming spicy notes. The careful secondary maturation ensures an expressive depth and a distinctly seasonal character that is perfectly suited to the colder months.
