- Description
- Douglas Laing's Timorous Beastie is a Highland blended malt where whiskies aged at least 13 years in American bourbon barrels converge at 52.5% ABV, creating a limited release of just 3,000 bottles. The bourbon cask influence brings caramel, vanilla, and warm spice to the Highland malt foundation, building a robust, full-bodied dram with a lingering finish. Named after a Robert Burns poem, this is uncompromisingly bold whisky—ideal for those who want their Highland malts with spirit and character.
