Rock Island Rum Cask Edition Blended Malt Whisky 700ml

Rock Island Rum Cask
Rock Island Rum Cask Edition is a blended Scotch whisky made up of Island single cask single malts that were married and then finished exclusively in Plantation Rum casks hailing from the Caribbean islands of Barbados, Jamaica, and Trinidad. From the fine folks at Douglas Laing, this whisky brings together flavours from the peat-smoked shores of Scotland to the warm climes of the Caribbean in order to stay true to Rock Island’s maritime heritage. Rock Island Rum Cask Edition was bottled at 46.8% ABV without colouring or chill-filtration.

Nose: Maritime salinity and ashy smoke mingle with salted caramel, charred oak, tropical fruit, and a hint of cinnamon spice.

Palate: Toasted brown sugar and banana foam sweets lead the way, backed by beach bonfire embers, zesty lime peel, smooth vanilla, and a touch of anise.

Finish: A lingering warmth of charred pineapple and crunchy cinder toffee.
