Big Peat Christmas 2019

The much-anticipated annual festive release this year shows Big Peat carefully selecting the casks for œhis 2019 Christmas expression, rolling a cask out of the cold, dark Islay warehouse on a snowy night. The premium gift tube glitters with the winter snowfall against the dark night™s sky. In its usual fashion, the Christmas Edition is bottled without colouring or chill-filtration, and at natural cask strength of 53.7%, delivering the ultimate distillation of Islay. They launched Big Peat 10 years ago onto an unsuspecting Whisky drinking public, and this is œhis 9th festive bottling. Every year they create a slightly different seasonal recipe but always use the same Islay Single Malts, which include amongst others Ardbeg, Bowmore, Caol Ila and even some soft, chewed-leathery Port Ellen; but they do so in different proportions, releasing it at Cask Strength - this year, a punchy 53.7% alcohol strength." Fred Laing, Chairman, said.
