Big Peat Winter Edition 2025, Madeira Cask
The Tasting Notes
Sweet Malt and sea air lead, with salted caramel, vanilla, and a lingering Islay peatiness.
Rich layers of molasses and crème brûlée, lifted by burnt orange peel, coal dust and a bold phenolic character.
Long and smoky, with lingering citrus, sea salt, and warm, earthy embers.
Details
A fusion of two very different worlds - one brimming with spindrift, peat smoke and famed distillieries; the other, sun-baked, sub-tropical, and celebrated for its dessert wine. Yet somehow, it works a treat. Big Peat has hand-selected Madeira wine casks in which to finish their robust Islay malt - adding layers of rich fruitiness, spiced citrus and toastred oak to his signature phenolic, smoke-heavy character.
The result? A hearty dram with just the right balance of warmth and indulgence, Hebridean gales and warm Atlantic breezes.
