Douglas Laing
have unveiled The Gauldrons Sherry Cask
Finish, the first ever Limited Edition
under their Campbeltown Malt Scotch
Whisky brand.
 Douglas
Laing has announced the release of The
Gauldrons Sherry Cask Finish, the first
ever Limited Edition under their
Campbeltown Malt Scotch Whisky brand.
Joining the core expression which
launched in 2017, The Gauldrons Sherry
Edition is strictly limited to no more
than 2,125 bottles. A marriage of Single
Cask Single Malts exclusively from
Campbeltown, the Blended Malt enjoyed a
finishing period in specially selected
Spanish Sherry Casks. As we have come to
expect from Douglas Laing, the new
limited release whisky is naturally
coloured, non chill filtered and it has
been bottled at what should be a
flavoursome strength of 46.2% ABV.
The Gauldrons, inspired by the eponymous
dark sandy coves on Campbeltown's west
shores, literally means "bay of storms".
It was here King Robert the Bruce,
having been defeated by his enemies, was
inspired watching a spider building his
web with great patience but great
difficulty, to try, try and try again.
The spider has become synonymous with
the core The Gauldrons expression,
featuring too on this new limited
edition.
Packaged in a sleek black bottle, red
colourways bring to life the Sherry cask
maturation, hinting at the rich
character of the Scotch Whisky inside.
Gold foil detail and a mini booklet,
placed around the bottle neck, complete
the product’s premium packaging.
Commenting on the new release, Cara
Laing, Marketing Director, said: "We’re
thrilled to launch the first ever
Limited Edition for The Gauldrons. The
classic Gauldrons spirit is always a
standout dram for us, earning rave
reviews from the industry and delighting
consumers at events the world over.
Experimenting with these
exceptional-quality Sherry casks has
resulted in a classically Campbeltown
dram with smoky sweetness balanced by
rich spices, and we truly can’t wait to
share it with whisky aficionados across
the globe."
The Gauldrons Sherry Cask Finish has a RRP of £60 and will be
available from specialist online whisky retailers such
as
The Whisky Exchange,
Amazon
and
Master of Malt

The Gauldrons Sherry Cask Finish Review
|
Producer's Tasting Notes:
Nose:
A remarkably sweet nose with toffee
apples, marshmallows, caramelised sugar
and candyfloss.
Taste:
The palate delivers crème brûlée,
evolving to ginger, nutmeg and red apple
with lingering smoked barley.
Finish:
A sharp finish with tangy orange sweets,
stewed red fruits and black pepper
covered strawberries.
