Blended Malt Whisky made by Douglas Laing in Islay, Scotland
How It’s Made
Big Peat is a marriage of Single Malt Scotch Whiskies only from the island of Islay. With Caol Ila spirit bringing sweetness, Bowmore the perfect balance, Ardbeg a medicinal, earthy quality and Port Ellen, a degree of elegance, Big Peat represents all that is Islay in a bottle. Part of the Remarkable Regional Malts range, the ultimate distillation of Scotland’s Malt Whisky Regions.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Opens fresh, salty and clean - developing to sweet malt dried over peat.
Palate: Ashes, sweet tar, beaches and smoking chimneys.
Finish: Long and lingering finish that replicates the palate with salty, tangy liquorice, smoke, bonfire ashes and a phenolic quality.
Why We Like It
