With today’s review of the Big Peat, I am closing the mini-series of reviews dedicated to Douglas Laing’s Remarkable Regional Malts and starting one on Peated Blended Malts. The two previous reviews from the Remarkable Regional Malts, didn’t manage to represent the character of their respective regions. Will this be a lucky third time?
Continuing my series on Blended Malts, today I look at another of Douglas Laing’s Remarkable Regional Malts. It’s time to review the Scallywag 10-year-old. This Speyside blend, aged exclusively in Oloroso and PX Sherry casks, is inspired by the Laing family’s Fox Terriers, as the not-so-subtle hints on the label give away.
After a couple of whisky geek blended malts favourites, SRV5 and Orchard House, it’s time to continue exploring this category with a few reviews of one of the most ubiquitous brands in this space: Douglas Laing’s Remarkable Regional Mark. Starting today with a review of the Timorous Beastie 10-year-old.
