Douglas Laing Big Peat Christmas 2021

From the Douglas Laing family to yours, we’re proud to present Big Peat’s Limited Edition Festive bottling for Christmas 2021! Proudly offered without colouring or chill-filtration and bottled at a natural cask strength of 52.8%, this potently punchy dram is the perfect accompaniment to those long, chilly winter nights.

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

On the night before Christmas, our feisty Ileach fisherman - Big Peat himself - embarks on a one-man mission to hand-deliver his special festive bottling, sprinkling a little Malt magic into homes all over the world.

Smothered in smoke and coated in coal, this remarkable marriage of Single Cask Single Malts, only from Islay, is packed with earthy, leathery, ashy charm, balanced by a wonderfully warming sweetness.
