Product description
Douglas Laing & Co. was owned for over 40 years by brothers Fred and Stuart Laing. In 2013, the brothers split the assets and started their own business.
The Provenance range has remained in the Douglas Laing & Co. portfolio, now owned by Fred. In early 2015 it underwent a redesign, where the previous presentation referred to the season, the current one emphasises the region from which the whisky comes. Glengoyne 10 years old, distilled June 2008, spent 10 years in a refill hogshead (DL 12970). Bottled in November 2018 without added colouring and chill filtration in an edition of 400 bottles.
