Ein Whisky mit einem Finish in einem italienischen Sangiovese Red Wine Cask – das ist die zweite Abfüllung in der exklusiven Old Particular Red Wine Cask Collection von Doulas Laing, die mit dem Hintergedanken ins Leben gerufen wurde, jeweils das perfekte Pairing zwischen Whisky und dem entsprechenden Rotweinfass zu finden.
Bei der neuen Abfüllung handelt es sich um einen 13 Jahre alten Blair Athol, der nach seiner Primärreifung im Rotweinfass veredelt wurde. Der mit 48,4% vol. Alkoholstärke abgefüllte Whisky wird in Kürze im gut sortierten Fachhandel zu finden sein – die UVP liegt bei 111 Euro.
