Douglas Laing The Gauldrons Campbeltown Scotch Whisky

The Gauldrons Campbeltown Malt Scotch Whisky tells the story of the eponymous dark, stormy coves on Campbeltown’s west shores, and literally means “Bay of Storms”. A marriage of the finest Campbeltown Malts, bottled in very small batches at 46.2% ABV, and proudly without colouring or chill-filtration. The Gauldrons is one of Douglas Laing's Remarkable Regional Malts.

Occupying a remote location, even by Campbeltown’s standards, on the extreme west coast of Scotland, The Gauldrons literally means “bay of storms”. But, it’s not just the dark storm clouds that set the pulse racing here and set the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end… Part of the Remarkable Regional Malts range, the ultimate distillation of Scotland’s Malt Whisky Regions.

Tasting Notes

Salty & maritime with a spicy finish

Nose

Opens with sea air, gentle smoke, manuka honey and a hint of dried seaweed.

Palate

Initially shows a maritime character, leading to sugary shortbread, dried oak and gristy cereals.

Finish

A distinctly spicy finish bringing puffs of smoke, Madagascan vanilla and cinnamon pancakes .
