About this bottle

The Gauldrons Blended Malt is a blended malt whisky produced by the independent bottler Douglas Laing & Co., comprising single malts from the Campbeltown region. "The Gauldrons" translates to "bay of storms" and refers to a bay on Scotland's west coast facing the Atlantic. The bottle's design incorporates a compass and a spider with her web. According to legend, Robert the Bruce (1274-1329) found motivation for Scotland's liberation from English rule by observing a spider repeatedly attempt to weave its web, eventually succeeding on its seventh try, which inspired his perseverance.

Robin Ashby 3.5

Nose: quite light, sweetness, some peat and vegetal notes. Palate: more intense, sweetness, oily, sticky, spices get intense towards the finish, but still very friendly. Finish: a bit short, sweet, bitterness, briny.

Dara Naylor 4.3

The nose is faint, primarily alcohol. The initial taste is very milk chocolate, followed by an oily diesel (like machine oil) sensation, and concluding with a dry, salty brine. Some warmth is present throughout.
