Big Peat – Douglas Laing Remarkable Regional Malts

Big Peat pulls no punches – this Blended Malt is a smoky tribute to Islay’s bold spirit and a fan-favourite in Douglas Laing’s Remarkable Regional Malts range. A blend of single malts from legends like Ardbeg, Caol Ila, Bowmore and even a dash of Port Ellen, Big Peat is a maritime powerhouse with a mischievous soul. Its iconic label – featuring a windblown Islay fisherman – hints at the dram within: rugged, bold, and unforgettable.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Rich peat smoke, seaweed, wet rope and a touch of soot. Beneath that: lemon, iodine, smoked ham and a salty sea breeze.

Palate

Powerful and punchy with classic Islay flavours: bonfire smoke, salt, tar, roasted malt and black pepper. Yet also surprisingly fresh with hints of citrus peel and mild liquorice.

Finish

Long and smoky with a peppery edge of ash, sea salt and a touch of smoky fish. A finish that lingers like a strong coastal wind.
