Big Peat
Big Peat is a brand created by Douglas Laing in 2009. Thanks to its success, it has become one of the classic references for peat lovers.
Big Peat are blended malts, blends of various malt whiskies, all fromIslay. These include Bowmore, Caol Ila, Ardbeg and Port Ellen. However, other distilleries can also be included in the blends.
But the packaging is surely what makes these bottlings recognizable. They feature a bearded man, representing an archetypal inhabitant of Islay(Ileach). The latter is nicknamed Pete (a pun on Peat, meaning peat) and appears to be on a windy seashore.
Big Peat is as much about the life of the people of Islay as it is about the island's peated whisky tradition.
In addition to the classic Big Peat Small Batch, the brand is diversifying, with annualChristmaseditions, a 25-year Big Peat and Big Peat Feis Ile (Islay festival). Read less
