Behind door number 6 of the Kensington Wine Market Whisky Advent Calendar was a Douglas Laing Epicurean. This expression is from their Remarkable Regional Malts series. The Epicurean is the blend they created to represent the Lowland Region of Scotland.
Bottled at 46.2% ABV. This spirit is light gold in colour.
Nose: Light grass, barley, citrus, herbs and dried wildflowers. A piece of toast with marmalade.
Palate: Sweet and spice converge. Almonds, peach skin and stewed plums.
Finish: Toasted almonds, cut grass, top crust of burnt sugar on a crème brulee.
This is a very well put together whisky with lots of character and depth.
Rating 8.3/10
