Virtual Whisky Tasting
Bottled By: Douglas Laing X8 1.5cl

Time for our latest Whisky-Online Virtual Tasting! Join us on Zoom on Friday 16th June for an evening of great drams and stories with our guest host, the legendary Fred Laing of Douglas Laing & Co!

Fred will host the tasting live from Douglas Laing's offices in Hillington, which have recently had a seriously swanky upgrade. He'll be giving us a virtual tour of their fabulous new tasting room during the evening, but of course the main event will be the eight superb drams he'll be introducing, accompanied by plenty of stories and Fred's unfailingly entertaining banter. This will be an unmissable tasting.

Fred Laing

Fred Laing joined the family business Douglas Laing and Co. in 1972, taking over the company in 1984 with his brother Stewart after the death of their father Fred Douglas Laing Sr. The company launched their famous Old Malt Cask range of single malts in 1998, quickly followed by the McGibbon's Provenance series in 2000 and the Old Malt Cask Platinum Selection the following year.

After Stewart Laing left the company in 2013, Fred Laing is now Chairman of Douglas Laing & Co., with his daughter Cara Laing on board as Director of Whisky. The Old Particular and Provenance ranges are now the company's main vehicles for their colossal range of single malt and single grain whiskies, and the company also has a popular range of regional blended malt whiskies, the most famous of which is their much-loved Big Peat blended Islay malt.
