Timorous
Beastie Highland Blended Malt introduces
the third and final instalment in its 'Cheese
Cellar Collection' with the unveiling of
the Moscatel Finish Limited Edition.
Douglas
Laing & Co. has just revealed the third
and final installment in their Timorous
Beastie ‘Cheese Cellar’ Collection. This
creative series features the acclaimed
Highland Malt, enhanced through a
variety of meticulously chosen cask
finishes—each designed to pair perfectly
with artisanal cheeses.
The concluding release has been matured
in White and Purple Moscatel casks,
adding what the company describes as "an
exceptional depth of flavour" to the
whisky.
To elevate the whisky’s rich and layered
character, Goat’s Cheese is recommended
as the perfect pairing. Its soft, tangy,
and creamy qualities are said to
"beautifully complement the whisky’s
sweet, fruity, and floral notes,"
creating a harmonious balance of flavour
and texture.
Presented in the signature tall black
bottle of the Cheese Cellar Collection,
this final edition showcases the beloved
Timorous Beastie mouse in a bold blue
design, enhanced with luxurious gold
foil accents and a deep blue wax seal. A
foiled neck tag offers further details
on the tasting profile and highlights
the expression’s unique role within the
series.
Bottled at 48% ABV, with no added
colouring or chill-filtration, this
release stays true to Douglas Laing’s
core philosophy of presenting Scotch
Whisky "as natural as it gets."
Scott Morrison, Senior Brand Manager,
commented: "With this final release in
the Cheese Cellar Collection, we
complete a journey of flavour
exploration that Whisky and cheese
lovers alike have embraced. The
influence of the White and Purple
Moscatel casks brings a refined
sweetness and floral elegance, making
this expression a fitting conclusion to
the series."
A limited release of 4,200 bottles
worldwide,
Timorous Beastie Moscatel Finish edition is expected to retail at £60.00/€70.00 and will be
available from specialist online
whisky shops such as
The Whisky Exchange
and

Producer's
Tasting Notes:
Nose: A
sweet spiciness on the nose gives way to
dried fruits, caramel, and fresh orange
peel.
Taste: The
thick palate bursts with creamy malt and
cereals, balanced by tangy marmalade and
honeysuckle.
Finish: The
sweet finish lingers on—anticipate
orange blossom, a hint of spice, and
apricot.
