Douglas Laing's Small Batch Big Peat is an Islay blended malt Scotch whisky made from single malts sourced from Ardbeg, Caol Ila, Bowmore and Port Ellen distilleries. The whisky is bottled at 46% ABV without chill-filtration or added coloring, and is available for around $50.
If you have a passion for exceptionally peaty whisky, Big Peat will leave something to be desired. However, for those who are looking an introduction to Islay Scotch or want something less than a peat kiln in their mouths, Big Peat is a solid choice.
