Douglas Laing Unveils Online Exclusive Timorous Beastie Winter Edition

Douglas Laing & Co., award-winning family-run Scotch Whisky firm, will launch Timorous Beastie 16 Years Old Winter Edition exclusively on DouglasLaing.com on Monday 4th November 2019. 

A Limited Edition batch of only 400 bottles, this unique Highland Malt Scotch Whisky spent 16 long years maturing exclusively in a Spanish Sherry butt. Offered at 45.1% alcohol strength and proudly without colouring or chill-filtration, the tasting notes for this unique release include Christmas cake, blood oranges and ginger.  

The clear bottle showcases the naturally dark and decadent spirit inside, with a festive-themed and foiled label. Each bottle is presented in a canvas, printed bag, rendering Timorous Beastie Winter Edition the perfect Christmas gift!

Jenny Rogerson, Head of Marketing, said: “As the bitterly cold Winter months set in, there’s nothing like a richly Sherried Malt Whisky to warm the soul! We created Timorous Beastie 16 Years Old for the chilly Winter evenings…a dram to be sipped and savoured by the fire, or perhaps even slipped into a Christmas stocking!”

Timorous Beastie 16 Years Old “The Winter Edition” will be available exclusively on DouglasLaing.com from 9am GMT Monday 4th November 2019.

Tasting Notes:

The nose reveals cocoa and orange zest with a touch of cinnamon and nutmeg. The palate brings raisins, chocolate, Christmas cake and sweet stewed fruits. The finish lingers with blood oranges and crystallised ginger.
