ORKNEY 8 ans 2015 Douglas Laing

From the Orkney Islands, this 8-year-old single malt perfectly embodies the maritime and authentic character of this iconic region. Distilled in January 2015 and matured in a second-fill cask, it was bottled in June 2023 at 46% ABV, without chill filtration or added colouring, to preserve all its natural richness. This single cask reveals an intense and contrasting profile: aromas of cocoa powder mingle with notes of damp oak and sea salt. On the palate, the warmth of cinnamon and brown sugar meets the indulgence of juicy plums, carried by an elegant coastal minerality. The finish highlights the influence of sherry, with a spicy touch and accents of salted caramel and aged leather. Douglas Laing’s Provenance range celebrates the authenticity of Scotch single malts through unique bottlings that remain true to the identity of their distillery and are offered in their purest form.
