Rock Island Sherry Edition Hong Kong Exclusive

Similar to Douglas Laing's other Blended Malt brands like Scallywag and Big Peat, Rock Island is crafted by blending Single Malt whiskies from various island distilleries, including the well-known Islay, Arran, Jura, and Orkney. This special Hong Kong exclusive edition, however, uniquely features only Sherry cask matured malt whiskies, and is presented at a generous strength of 51.6%!

Tasting Note for reference:

The nose brings a warm, earthy style that develops to streaky, smoked bacon and peated barley. The palate bursts with warming spices, buttered toast and cured meats with an underlying sweetness. The finish lingers with a damp soil character plus mocha, brown sugar and allspice.

Douglas Laing

Douglas Laing is a renowned independent bottler from Scotland, founded in 1948 by Fred Douglas Laing. Now run by his son Fred Laing and granddaughter Cara Laing, the company is best known for the “Remarkable Regional Malts” series—including Big Peat, Scallywag, Timorous Beastie, Rock Island, and The Epicurean—that capture the character of different Scotch whisky regions. In addition to blended malts, they also offer single cask ranges such as Old Particular, XOP (Xtra Old Particular), and Premier Barrel, all bottled without chill filtration or added coloring to preserve the whisky’s original character.

Douglas Laing takes pride in its careful cask selection and natural presentation philosophy. In 2019, the company took a bold step by establishing The Clutha Distillery in Glasgow, marking its evolution from independent bottler to full-scale producer. Spanning three generations, Douglas Laing is celebrated for its deep cask inventory and commitment to quality, earning a loyal following among whisky enthusiasts worldwide.
