Description
A flagship of the Remarkable Regional Malts series from the family-owned Douglas Laing & Co, Big Peat is a masterfully blended Islay malt that brings together iconic spirits from the “Queen of the Hebrides.” It is bottled at 46% ABV and remains completely natural, produced without chill-filtration or added colouring. It features a marriage of single malts including Ardbeg, Caol Ila, Bowmore, and even the legendary, closed Port Ellen distillery. When you buy from Decanter Liquor, you are securing a liquid that captures the raw, maritime essence of an entire island in one 750ml bottle. This premium whisky in South Africa offers a complex profile that is best enjoyed neat or with a tiny splash of spring water to unlock its deeper layers. Whether you are looking to buy whisky online in South Africa for a gift or your own collection, Big Peat is a definitive choice for those who appreciate authentic Islay character.
- Nose: Opens with a fresh, salty, and clean breeze that transitions into sweet malt dried over a peat fire.
- Palate: A rugged combination of ashes, sweet tar and beach bonfires, reminiscent of smoking chimneys.
- Finish: Long and lingering, echoing the palate with salty, tangy liquorice, smoke, bonfire ash, and a distinct phenolic quality.
