Douglas Laing Rock Oyster
Douglas Laing's Rock Oyster is a premium "blended malt" Scotch whisky (meaning it is a blend of 100% single malts from different distilleries, with no grain whisky) designed to capture the maritime, salty essence of Scotland's island distilleries. Released in 2015, it is part of the independent bottler's Remarkable Regional Malts range, representing the "Islands" region.

Tasting Notes
Nose: An intense blast of sea spray, brine, and coastal peat, balanced by fresh lemon zest, wet ash, and a faint hint of sweet green apple
Palate: Big, savory maritime flavors dominate with sea salt, smoke, and vegetal peat, leading into subtle sweetness from malted cereal, honey, and delicate citrus
Finish: Long and warming with lingering salty smoke, white pepper, and a pleasant dry coastal minerality.

Compass Box The Peat Monster
Still very much the whisky for those who love big, rich, smoky-peaty malts, our latest version of THE PEAT MONSTER is older and more elegant than before. Inspired by feedback from smoky whisky lovers, our new Painting Label of THE PEAT MONSTER incorporates single malts with a more aromatic and graceful style of smokiness. We have sought to retain the peaty intensity for which THE PEAT MONSTER has long been celebrated, whilst creating a depth and elegance not seen before. New batches of THE PEAT MONSTER boast a spectrum of powerful coastal flavours, combining the smokiness of a driftwood fire with more medicinal peat notes. Orchard fruits and rich cask-derived creaminess balance the multi-layered smoke. It is a new peaty landscape, as the Painting Label shows.
