Frequently asked
What is Douglas Laing?
Family-owned Scotch whisky independent bottler founded 1948 by Fred Douglas Laing in Glasgow. Now in the third and fourth generation of family ownership. Specialises in blended malts and cask-strength single-cask bottlings across the Remarkable Regional Malts and Old Particular ranges.
What is a "blended malt"?
Whisky made by blending single malts from multiple distilleries — 100% malted barley, no grain whisky. Different from "blended Scotch" which includes grain whisky. Big Peat is 100% Islay malts blended together.
Which Islay distilleries are included?
Douglas Laing traditionally uses malts from Ardbeg, Bowmore, Caol Ila, and other Islay distilleries in Big Peat. Exact composition varies by batch. Distinctively Islay in character regardless.
