Big Peat 27 Years Old - The Black Edition
Big Peat
Tasting Notes
Rich and intense, this 27-year-old Big Peat whisky takes you on a coastal journey with its bold Islay character. The nose greets you with a briny sea breeze, followed by hints of buttery biscuits, supple leather, and a floral barley sweetness. On the palate, candied citrus peels mingle with honeyed notes, complemented by an oaky depth and an occasional savory, meaty undertone. As the flavors linger, the finish unveils layers of ashy smoke, refreshing mint leaf, nutty Brazil nut, and a lingering sweetness of honey, punctuated by spicy ginger bursts. A true testament to Islay's renowned peat and maritime influence, this Black Edition marks a grand finale for Douglas Laing's Vintage Trilogy, offering a complex and age-worthy dram for the discerning whisky enthusiast.
