Timorous Beastie 13 Year Old – Meet The Beast
Timorous Beastie
Tasting Notes
A bold and daring blend, the Timorous Beastie 13 Year Old whisky from Douglas Laing unleashes a spirited character that defies its name. Matured for at least 13 years in American bourbon barrels, this Highland malt boasts an enticing nose of roasted nuts, flamed orange peel, and a delightful vanilla sponge aroma. On the palate, it delivers a harmonious blend of vanilla pod, spiced oak, honeycomb sweetness, and a hint of bruised apple. As the flavors linger, a bold ginger and cassia spice emerges, complemented by a subtle touch of smoke. Despite its limited edition of 3,000 bottles, this beastie is anything but timid, proudly bearing its name from a Robbie Burns poem while packing a robust 52.5% ABV punch. Prepare to meet a dram that challenges expectations and leaves a lasting impression.
