- Description
- Rock Island's 21-year-old blended malt combines single malts from four distinct Island regions—Islay, Arran, Jura, and Orkney—each aged at least two decades. The marriage creates complexity: from Islay's smoke and brine to Orkney's delicate character, with Arran and Jura contributing orchard notes and maritime balance. A sophisticated blend for those seeking regional diversity in a single bottle.
