Douglas Laing & Co. today introduces their new Old Particular ‘Red Wine Cask’ collection with the release of an exclusive Tormore 13 Years Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky finished in Tempranillo Red Wine casks.
Each pairing in this collection is said to have been “meticulously selected to enhance the inherent qualities of the chosen Malt Scotch Whisky, elevating the complexity and depth to introduce new and exciting taste experiences.”
The journey starts in Spain with this first release, using Tempranillo Red Wine Casks sourced from sunnier climates. The medium to full body of Tempranillo is said to “compliment the smooth texture of the Speyside Malt” and brings tasting notes of “sweet honey’d Malt, refreshingly ripe cherries, and juicy strawberries with lasting hints of leather, allspice and charred oak.”
Bottled at 48.4% alcohol strength and proudly without artificial colouring or chill filtration, this limited edition is expected to retail at £85.00 / €93.00.
Key Bottle Details:
• Finished in Tempranillo Red Wine Casks.
• Premium red wax dip finish.
• Bespoke design and showcased in a black bottle.
• Neck tag included with QR code to bottle tasting.
• 48.4% ABV.
