Big Peat Heroes Edition

Volume: 700ml / ABV: 48%

Douglas Laing has created this limited edition bottling of Big Peat blended malt Scotch whisky to honour the heroes who have helped throughout the Covid pandemic. The indie bottler will also be donating £10,000 in sanitiser to a UK charity, with a QR on this release's packaging through which people can vote for their charity of choice. The whisky itself is made with peaty whiskies from across the isle of Islay, weighing at 40 PPM, and bottled up at 48% ABV.

Tasting Note

Nose

Smoked meats and earthy peat, with layers of vanilla and cinnamon underneath.

Palate

Brown sugar, oatcakes with just a smidgeon of apple chutney, yet more drying smoke.

Finish

Hints of lemon shine out behind charred oak and sea salt.
