Douglas Laing 限量版 Rock Island 調和麥芽威士忌——龍舌蘭桶熟成版

獨立蘇格蘭威士忌調和、裝瓶與蒸餾品牌 Douglas Laing 正式宣布推出其最新限量版作品——Rock Island Tequila Cask Edition(龍舌蘭桶熟成款)。這款全新版本以龍舌蘭桶進行後熟,為經典 Rock Island 系列再添亮點。

此前推出的各款 Rock Island 特別桶型限量版均獲得威士忌愛好者的熱烈迴響,而這次的龍舌蘭桶版預期將延續這股佳績。

Rock Island Tequila Cask Edition 採用曾盛裝龍舌蘭酒的橡木桶進行獨家熟成,將蘇格蘭與墨西哥兩地的風味與文化精髓完美融合,呈現出全新的 Rock Island 調和麥芽威士忌風貌。

此款威士忌由來自蘇格蘭四大知名威士忌島嶼——Arran、Islay、Jura  Orkney——的單一麥芽威士忌所調和而成,並以頂級龍舌蘭桶完成後熟。酒體風味層次豐富,交織著焦糖布丁、紅糖與烘烤橡木的香氣,輕柔的泥煤氣息點綴其中,龍舌蘭桶帶來的清新柑橘調更添明亮層次。

Rock Island Tequila Cask Edition 採單瓶裝呈現,以手繪高質感設計套筒包裝。整體設計靈感源自墨西哥文化與傳統圖像,藉由鮮明的色彩與象徵元素詮釋地域精神,同時融合 Rock Island 的高端品牌形象。

這款全球限量版以 酒精濃度 48% ABV 裝瓶,未添加人工色素,並保留原始風味、未經冷凝過濾,完全體現 Douglas Laing 家族「最自然的威士忌」釀造理念。

品牌經理 Chloe Wood 表示:

「Douglas Laing 對 Rock Island 這款作品深感驕傲。它融合了世界上四個最具代表性的威士忌島嶼,締造出真正獨一無二的調和麥芽威士忌。探索桶型的潛力始終是我們品牌的重要理念,而這次的龍舌蘭桶版本正完美詮釋了這一精神。將蘇格蘭與墨西哥的文化交融,讓這款全新 Rock Island 作品呈現出截然不同的魅力,我們期待與全球的 Rock Island 與 Douglas Laing 愛好者一同分享這份驚喜。」

 

Douglas Laing – independent Scotch Whisky Blenders, Bottlers and Distillers – announce their latest limited edition Rock Island Blended Malt Scotch Whisky, finished in Tequila Casks.

Previous cask finish limited editions of Rock Island Blended Malt have proven extremely popular with this edition set to follow-suit.

Rock Island Tequila Cask has been finished exclusively in ex-Tequila Casks, bringing together the culture and tastes of both Scotland and Mexico, resulting in an all-new Rock Island Blended Malt.

The Single Malts combined to create Rock Island – hailing from the famous whisky islands of Arran, Islay, Jura, and Orkney – have been finished in superior-quality Tequila casks, allowing Rock Island fans to enjoy flavour profiles of crème brûlée, brown sugar and toasted oak, with an element of peat, complimented by the citrus and freshness brought by the Tequila Cask finishing.

Rock Island Tequila Cask Edition is presented bottle only, beautifully showcasing our hand-drawn, premium design which has been applied as a sleeve. The design itself is a showcase of elements from Mexican heritage and culture in iconography and colours with the premium Rock Island branding integrated throughout.

This Global Limited Edition has been bottled at 48% ABV and is proudly offered without colouring or chill-filtration, in line with the Douglas Laing family’s ethos of bottling whisky ‘As natural as it gets’.

Chloe Wood, Rock Island' Brand Manager commented:

“Rock Island is a brand we’re extremely proud of here at Douglas Laing. It allows four of some of the most iconic Whisky-producing Islands around the world, to be brought together to create a truly unique Blended Malt Scotch Whisky. As ever, cask-exploration remains an important element of our business at Douglas Laing and this Tequila Cask Edition of Rock Island is no exception. Bringing elements of Scotland and Mexico together provides such an interesting release of Rock Island that we are looking forward to sharing with Rock Island and Douglas Laing fans around the world!”
