Port Ellen 1979 40 Year Old XOP Black Series
Lot number: 128-07616
Winning bid: £2,800
Having been in specialist and craft Scotch Whisky production for generations, Douglas Laing originally exported blends, but now carries the family name down the line by focusing on bottling exceptional single malts and grains as part of their Old Particular, Provenance and XOP ranges. They also enjoy huge success with their "Remarkable Regional Malts" range; a series of creatively named vatted malts, designed to epitomise the characteristics of Scotland's whisky regions.
Douglas Laing's XOP - Xtra Old Particular - is a premium selection of the very best rare single malts and grains from the family vault. Each XOP release is one of a kind and comes with a numbered certificate to honour the antique spirit inside. The Black Series is a further evolution to the range featuring extraordinarily rare and antiqued single cask whiskies selected from the Douglas Laing family's private collection.
