Big Peat Heroes Edition is a tribute to whisky heroes, created by Douglas Laing, an independent bottler of fine Scotch whisky. This special edition pays homage to frontline heroes during the COVID pandemic, with a generous £10,000 donation to charity. The whisky is a masterful blend of the finest Islay peated whiskies, boasting an impressive 40PPM on the peaty scale and confidently bottled at 48% ABV.
Tasting notes present a nose reminiscent of a garden meat smoker, earthy peat, festive Christmas spices, and a creamy vanilla undertone. On the palate, you'll discover a rich tapestry of dark caramel, freshly prepared porridge oats, sweet stewed apples, vanilla anglaise, and layers of drying peat smoke. The finish leaves you with delightful notes of lemon tart, toasted oak, caramel, and a touch of sea salt.
This blended malt offers a bold and robust flavour profile enriched with peaty and maritime characteristics. Whether you're a seasoned whisky enthusiast or a novice, Big Peat Heroes Edition stands as a remarkable addition to any whisky collection. Dive into the world of rich flavours, including brine, bonfire smoke, and hints of citrus, all elegantly presented in this special edition that shines in both taste and spirit.
The tasting notes are yours to discover
We don't publish tasting notes ahead of time, and that's deliberate. This masterclass is about training your own nose and palate, not reading someone else's.
On the night, you'll learn how to nose a whisky properly, what to look for on the palate, and how the finish tells you about the cask it came from. Expect to discover a wide range of aromas and flavours, from honey, vanilla and orchard fruit to dried spice, dark chocolate, toasted oak and campfire smoke across the six drams.
Your host will guide you through each whisky, explaining how ingredients, distillation methods, cask maturation and age influence the final character in your glass.
Whether you're completely new to whisky or already an enthusiast, this guided tasting will help you build confidence in identifying flavours and describing what you experience.
By the final pour, you won't need our tasting notes—you'll be writing your own.
