Douglas Laing Timorous Beastie 40 Years Old Cask Strength
48% abv
A majestic and mature expression from Douglas Laing’s beloved “Remarkable Regional Malts” range, Timorous Beastie 40 Year Old is a luxurious Highland blended malt crafted from some of Scotland’s finest distilleries—including long-aged casks from Glen Garioch, Dalmore, and Glengoyne. Bottled at natural cask strength and without chill filtration or colouring, this is a whisky of rare pedigree and poise.
On the nose, it exudes elegance with aromas of rich honeycomb, stewed orchard fruits, antique oak, and soft spice. The palate is full and velvety, unfolding layers of baked apple, cinnamon, vanilla cream, and toasted almonds, all balanced by a lingering note of old leather and subtle citrus zest. The finish is long, warming, and gently spiced, showcasing the harmony and depth only time can bring.
Limited in release and beautifully presented, Timorous Beastie 40 Year Old is a remarkable celebration of Highland character—bold, complex, and unmistakably refined. A true collector’s gem and a luxurious dram for those rarest of occasions.
