Producer Description

Rock Island Year of the Dragon
$82.49
Limited Edition Whisky bottlings celebrating the Chinese New Year are so hot right now, guys! Move over, Johnnie Walker and Kavalan - Douglas Laing is getting in on the action with the Rock Island Year of the Dragon Edition.
Bottled at a pleasantly robust 54.8% ABV, this edition of Rock Island features a marriage of single malts from the Scottish Isles of Arran, Islay, Jura, and Orkney. Evan was somewhat disappointed at whisky from Mull not being included, but his mood improved thanks to the use of heavily charred casks for finishing.
From The Producer
"Honouring the importance that wood plays in the creation of Scotch Whisky, this edition of Rock Island has been finished in heavily charred casks, giving the spirit an opportunity to extract layer upon layer of rich flavour from the wood."
Tomintoul White Port Finish
$78.99
A cask-led young Tomintoul that was first matured in ex-Bourbon barrels before being finished in White Port barriques from Portugal. White Port is not a cask type we see very often in the whisky world. This should be a fun and fruity one from the distillery that produces 'the gentle dram' (their words, not ours).
