As the second release in the series by the independent bottler, Harmony has matured in a single sherry butt and bottled at a cask strength of 52.6%.
This expression is the second release in the Spiritualist Series, which has taken its inspiration from the movement of mindfulness. The aim is to encourage whisky enthusiasts to take time out from their busy lives to enjoy a moment of harmonious calm.
The series was launched with Balance, an Islay single cask single malt and is now followed by an exploration of single cask single grain whisky.
Cara Laing, Douglas Laing’s director of whisky said: “I love Single Grain so thoroughly enjoyed trying numerous samples for this latest release of our Spiritualist Series. I kept returning to this particular cask as we felt it was indeed a perfect harmony of oak and spirit character. After 28 years in a Sherry butt, you could expect the oak cask to dominate in terms of flavour, but the wood, time and the spirit have interacted harmoniously resulting in layers of flavours that come together beautifully.”
Old Particular’s Harmony is expected to retail at £89.99.
