Douglas Laing explain 'This Big Peat Heroes is a charitable limited edition celebrating our nation’s heroes. This marriage of Single Cask Single Malts exclusively from Islay, sees Big Peat donate £10,000.00 in sanitiser to a heroic UK charity / charitable organisation. Consumers are asked to vote for the charity of their choice via an on-pack QR code and via Big Peat’s Social Media.'
Big Peat is a feisty character, with a sweet side too. ‘He’ carries a peaty, beachy, oceanic and rather ashy selection of Single Cask Single Malts only from the island of Islay, including those distilled at Ardbeg, Bowmore, Caol Ila and Port Ellen.
Douglas Laing describe it as having an earthy, peat smoke style coupled with an underlying brown sugar sweetness. £42.00Add to Cart View the Product
