OLD PARTICULAR BIG PEAT Islay Single 2006 (15 Year Old)
Douglas Laing are well known for bottling excellent single casks in their Old Particular range and for producing Big Peat, a best selling Islay blended malt, and with this special release they have combined the two. This is a single cask from an un-named Islay distillery, but it’s a good bet that it’s a distillery that contributes to Big Peat’s blended malt. It’s been drawn from a re-fill sherry butt, where it slumbered for 15 years, then bottled at a hearty 48.4% with no added color and no chill filtration. Expect smoky BBQ, espresso and sweet cereal notes from this mysterious dram.
