The Scallywag DL Small Batch Release is a blended Speyside malt whisky crafted by the renowned Douglas Laing & Co. This limited edition whisky draws inspiration from the Douglas Laing family's fondness for Fox Terriers, symbolized by the "Scallywag" name and the fox terrier proudly displayed on the label. This whisky is a complex vatting of Speyside malts, including notable distilleries such as Mortlach, Macallan, and Glenrothes, aged in a harmonious blend of sherry and bourbon casks.
Bottled at an ABV of 46%, this non-chill filtered whisky showcases a rich, dark hue, a result of its maturation in Spanish sherry butts. The craftsmanship ensures that the true, natural flavors and characteristics of the whisky come through without any added coloring or filtration. The flavor profile is a captivating mix of vanilla, richly stewed fruit, Christmas pudding, dark chocolate, spicy citrus, and sweet tobacco, delivering a charming and intricately layered malt experience.
