The allure of darkness --- Scallywag Noir

繼承其獲獎的Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky 系列的成功，獨立蘇格蘭威士忌專家Douglas Laing & Co.驕傲地推出了Scallywag Noir，這是一款非凡的限量版，旨在吸引感官並擁抱黑暗的魅力。

Scallywag Noir主要在來自西班牙南部安達盧西亞地區Jerez的Pedro Ximénez Sherry雪莉酒桶中完成陳釀。這種豐富的桶陳風味被譽為“賦予深沉絲滑的甜味、黑色水果和溫暖的香料”，創造出誘人且複雜的威士忌體驗。以自然桶強度52.8% ABV裝瓶，未經冷凝過濾或添加色素，Noir體現了Scallywag系列標誌性的濃烈而未過濾的特質。

產品包裝採用高級金箔紙盒，並配有全新定制形狀的酒標，為深受喜愛的Scallywag家族帶來奢華美學。

在香氣上，Scallywag Noir帶來“一場深沉絲滑甜味、黑色水果和溫暖香料的交響樂”。每一口都揭示出神秘的複雜性，口中展現黑巧克力、香料橡木和浸泡過雪莉酒的葡萄乾的細膩層次。悠長持久的餘韻極致誘人，帶來糖蜜、成熟無花果和黑櫻桃的香氣。

Douglas Laing 資深品牌經理Scott Morrison表示：
“Scallywag一直以濃郁雪莉酒風味的奢華著稱，而Noir讓這一理念更加昇華。Pedro Ximénez酒桶賦予這款烈酒深沉、黑暗的強度，締造出既奢華又複雜的威士忌。Noir邀請大家走入陰影，發現Scallywag更豐富、更深邃的一面。”

Following the success of its award-winning Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky range, independent Scotch Whisky specialist Douglas Laing & Co. proudly introduces Scallywag Noir, an extraordinary limited-edition release designed to captivate the senses and embrace the allure of darkness.

Scallywag Noir is predominantly finished in Pedro Ximénez Sherry casks sourced from Jerez, in the Andalusian region of southern Spain. This rich cask influence is said to “impart deep velvety sweetness, dark fruits, and warming spices “creating an indulgent and complex whisky experience. Bottled at a natural cask strength of 52.8% ABV, without chill-filtration or added colouring, Noir embodies the signature bold and unfiltered character of the Scallywag range.

Encased in a premium gold-foiled carton and featuring a brand-new bespoke-shaped front label, this release brings a fresh yet luxurious aesthetic to the beloved Scallywag family.

On the nose, Scallywag Noir is said to offer “a symphony of deep velvety sweetness, dark fruits, and warming spices. Each sip reveals an enigmatic complexity, with whispers of dark chocolate, spiced oak, and sherry-soaked raisins unravelling on the palate. The long, lingering finish is utterly indulgent, delivering notes of molasses, ripe figs, and black cherries.”

Scott Morrison, Senior Brand Manager comments:

“Scallywag has always been about rich, sherried indulgence, and with Noir, we’ve taken this philosophy to the next level. Pedro Ximénez casks lend a deep, dark intensity to the spirit, creating a whisky that is as luxurious as it is complex. Noir is an invitation to venture into the shadows and discover the richer, darker side of Scallywag.”
