Rare and Extra Old

About

King of Scots Rare Extra Old is a harmoniously balanced blended Scotch whisky from Douglas Laing, an independent bottler established in 1948. This expression showcases the distillery's expertise in marrying quality malts, delivering a refined and approachable dram that offers excellent value for discerning whisky enthusiasts. The nose reveals inviting notes of vanilla, caramel, and honeyed malt, complemented by orchard fruit and gentle spice. On the palate, initial sweetness emerges with ripe fruits and toffee, though the malty backbone remains prominent throughout. A subtle saltiness and delicate smokiness add complexity, while the finish fades with lingering malt and a dry, satisfying conclusion.
