Douglas Laing’s Timorous Beastie is most certainly not for the fainthearted! This non-coloured, non-chill-filtered Small Batch bottling is a marriage of appropriately aged and selected Highland Malts – including, amongst others, those distilled at Glen Garioch, Dalmore and Glengoyne distilleries.
Nose – Overridingly sweet initially, then warming to floral, light barley and spicy honeyed tones.
Palate – Opens in a spicy style with fructiferous notes of raisin and a sugary, fudgey character.
Finish – Subtle yet sweet with a real oaky flavour, hints of milky cereals and late meringue.
