The story
Old Particular is a single cask series launched by Douglas Laing & Co. as part of its 'Exceptional Single Casks' labels. The range brings together individual casks from various Scottish distilleries and established itself in the independent whisky market thanks to careful cask selection and limited-edition presentation.
Production philosophy
Select and showcase the original character of the spirit: each release is a single cask chosen to tell a story of place and maturation, bottled as is to preserve oils, texture and flavour.
Territory
Scotland (multiple regions: Speyside, Highland, Islay, Isle of Skye, etc.)
Production method
Selection and purchase of individual casks from distilleries; bottling as single cask without colouring and without chill-filtration, generally at high strength (cask strength or predefined strengths for the series).
Ageing
Maturation in cask carried out at the original distillery; bottles drawn from selected single casks.
