- Rock Island's 2024 limited edition blends single malts from Orkney, Arran, Jura, and Islay, finished in heavily charred 'crocodile' casks that impart deep oak influence. Bottled at cask strength (54.8% ABV) with no colouring or chill-filtration, this celebratory release captures the marriage of four distinct island characters.
