Douglas Laing
unveil Big Peat Pals edition for Feis
Ile 2019.
Douglas
Laing has unveiled Big Peat’s Pals Limited
Edition for Feis Ile2019, Islay’s Annual
Festival of Malt and Music.
Innovative as ever with their packaging,
this years commemorative bottling
features the faces of 400 of Big Peat’s
"pals" from all over the world, after
fans of the brand were invited to submit
their selfies via an online competition.
The whisky you will find in the bottle
is a unique batch of the cult Islay
Whisky, a marriage of Single Malts
distilled at Ardbeg, Bowmore, Caol Ila
and as always in Big Peat a drop from
long-closed Port Ellen distillery,
amongst others.
2019 marks 10 years since the launch of
Big Peat, and the Douglas Laing team
plan to celebrate with an online
"birthday party" themed tasting. Hosted
on Big Peat’s Facebook profile during
the Feis Ile Festival in late May,
selected members of the community will
be invited to join a virtual masterclass
and enjoy samples of the classic Big
Peat recipe, the new Feis Ile release,
his recent 10 Years Old Limited Edition,
and the oldest ever bottling released to
date, the 26 Years Old "Platinum"
Edition.
Commenting on the release, Cara Laing
(Director of Whisky and third generation
in the family business) said: "By
marrying together a fine selection of
our preferred Single Malts, only from
Islay, we truly believe we have created
the ultimate taste of Islay in Big Peat.
His latest limited edition, the Feis Ile
2019 release, pays homage to his friends
the world over, over 400 of whom feature
proudly on the gift tube. This year, we
celebrate 10 years since my father
dreamt up Big Peat, and our extensive
plans will ensure our Big Islay Pal
celebrates in style all over the world!
Big Peat’s Pals Feis Ile 2019 Limited
Edition is not chill filtered, offered
without colouring, and bottled at 48%

online birthday party will be announced
on his Facebook page.
Big Peat Pals Feis Ile 2019 Limited
