Douglas Laing
completes the Big Peat Limited Edition
Trilogy collection with the release of
Big Peat The Black Edition 27 Year Old.
Douglas
Laing has announced the release of the
Big Peat The Black Edition 27 Year Old,
the third release in their Big Peat
Limited Edition Trilogy collection.
The Black Edition 27 Year Old, completes
the series of collectable, aged
bottlings, which also comprises the Big
Peat Gold Edition 25 Year Old and the
Big Peat Platinum Edition 26 Year Old.
The premium, mature trio of Big
Peat’s charts the journey of a unique
marriage of Islay’s finest aged and rare
Single Cask Single Malts over a three
year period.
Each is bottled at high alcohol strength
– the Black Edition at 48.3% ABV - and
as you would expect from Douglas Laing
they are offered without colouring or
chill-filtration.
Cara Laing, Director of Whisky, said "In
2017 we selected a number of sister
casks that were all destined to be
bottled within Big Peat’s Vintage
Trilogy. Back then we set out bring to
life the journey of the spirit with each
year that passed, and the experiment has
been a fascinating one. Big Peat’s
signature sweet smokiness has remained
at the heart of the Gold, Platinum and
now the Black Edition, but this latest
release displays a new complexity that
has deepened with the passing of time.
This "grown up" limited edition within
the Big Peat portfolio will serve to add
further credibility to what is
undoubtedly a fun brand with very
respectable credentials."
The new Big Peat 27 Year Old Black
Edition is a limited release of 3,000
bottles and will be available from
specialist whisky shops such as
The Whisky Exchange and
Master of Malt

Big Peat The Black Edition 27 Year Old Review
|
Producer's
Tasting Notes:
Nose:
Allow a heady, chimney-smoked nose to
whisk you off to Big Peat’s Islay home,
with hints of briney sea air, chewed
leather and a honey sweetness.
Taste:
The refined palate shows a complex
amalgam of barbequed meats, coal dust
and rock salt, running to a long and
satisfying finish with drifting puffs of
peat smoke.
