Rock Oyster Blended Malt Scotch Whisky is a Scottish island blended malt produced by independent bottler Douglas Laing & Co., first released in early 2015. It is a vatting of single malts from the islands of Islay, Arran, Jura and Orkney, made from 100% malted barley with no grain whisky added. Bottled at 46.8% ABV without chill-filtration or added coloring, it sells for around $50-62.
Honey, salt, metallic notes, copper, black pepper, mint. Ash which tends to move into the dust end of the spectrum as is overwhelms the smoke, somewhat reminiscent of charcoal.
