About this bottle

William Lawson's 13 Year is named after a notable 19th-century blender at E & J Scotch. The primary component of this blended Scotch is Macduff Glen Deveron. Although it is an unpeated Scotch, the whisky is finished in charred bourbon casks to impart a smokier character.

Derrick Morrow 2.0

Nose: Immediately after pouring, alcohol and sweetness dominate, then vanilla and spices emerge, with a subtle hint of fruit. This reflects standard bourbon cask aging. Taste: Sweet, vanilla, oak, and spices. Unremarkable, yet agreeable. Slightly rough. Finish: Brief and direct. Overall: 2.7 stars (72 points)

Alexis Graf 4.0

Wonderfully smooth, rounded, a light smoky hint but not peat.

Declan Ceja 3.0

Very smooth, with caramel and a sweet finish. Rated 3/5.

Gale Felton 5.0

A pleasant sipping whiskey with notes of walnut.
