Portrait: Big Peat Christmas Edition 2022

The Big Peat Christmas Edition 2022 is the twelfth bottling of the popular, limited Big Peat Christmas Edition. The sympathetic bulbous nose is now symbolic for the smoky Islay Whisky. The malt blend in the Christmas Edition 2022 also consists of a blend of the first-class Islay single malts from Ardbeg, Bowmore, Caol Ila and Port Ellen.

Natural pleasure for peat heads with strong smoke and delicious aromas that are made for cold winter days. As usual from the Scottish quality bottler Douglas Laing, you get malt whisky here without colouring and without chill filtration. 54.2% Vol. ignite a warming fire in your nosing glass. You'll encounter burnt caramel, hints of Hebridean sea air and rich earthy notes balanced by a toasted marshmallow sweetness.

This year, the bearded Big Peat had a Christmassy "accident" and got his head stuck in a Christmas wreath on his home island of Islay. The Big Peat Christmas Edition 2022 features a chic gift tube with gloss lacquered details and features a custom illustration showing the iconic bearded fisherman with his head in a Christmas wreath. The red and white striped bottle cap, which has become synonymous with the Christmas edition, completes the quality gift idea for Islay lovers. A real must-have for collectors, enthusiasts or as a heartwarming whisky gift.
