Double Black was crafted for those who crave an even smokier, bolder experience. Master Blender Jim Beveridge created it by selecting intensely peated malts and heavily charred casks, delivering a whisky that pushes the boundaries of the classic Black Label style. Designed to capture the rugged spirit of Scotland’s west coast, Double Black is a dark, brooding expression with layers of rich smoke and deep complexity.
