Douglas Laing & Co Ltd. is independent bottler based in Glasgow. The company was founded in 1949 by Fred Douglas Laing. Todays proprietors decided, that most of their casks in stock are to good for blending. They had the wish to bottle 50 bottlings of different distilleries for 50th company anniversary. This was the birth of the OLD MALT CASK – Series. In May 2013 the second-generation brothers Fred and Stewart Laing have split the company. New companies are Douglas Laing & Co. and Hunter Laing. Below are included miniatures from both companies.
The company has a number of brands including its "Remarkable Regional Malts" range, encompassing The Epicurean, Timorous Beastie, Scallywag, Rock Island and Big Peat, as well as Old Particular, Provenance and Xtra Old Particular, which they call "Exceptional Single Casks". Below are only Regional Malts, without old blends.
