The Epicurean

The fantastic Epicurean from Douglas Laing.
Small batch release.

Back in 1930s Glasgow, The Epicurean, as everyone knew him, was the life and soul of any party.
Wherever he popped in for a dram, you’d find him surrounded by a circle of admirers, regaling them with captivating tales of derring-do, of chance encounters in foreign climes and of the fine food and drink he feasted upon his travels.
Our new expression is in honour of that roguish character who never fails to deliver charm, charisma and just a little bit of cheek. Any likeness to Douglas Laing's Managing Director is purely coincidental! The Epicurean, our Lowland "Vatted" Malt joins Timorous Beastie from the Highlands, Scallywag from Speyside, Rock Oyster from the Islands and Big Peat from Islay to complete our Remarkable Regional Malts collection.

Tasting notes.
In a tipple of our Small Batch Epicurean, you can bet on a nose that is barley rich, citric, floral and herbal.
The mouth-coatingly sweet palate displays crunched sugar, burnt citrus, mixed spices, thyme, peaches and hard candy… All charmingly underpinned and enriched in the finish with more of that earlier herbal character, in a gristy style with almonds, cut grass and burnt sugar.
