Douglas Laing Timorous Beastie 700ml 46.8%

Full of sweet vanillas and honey Introduction: Douglas Laing's Timorous Beastie, immortalised in Robert Burns' famous Scots poem "To a Mouse", was a timid, little field mouse. Echoing our national bard's wit, ours 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
