The first release in the Douglas Laing's Vintage Series is a 25 year old Big Peat titled The Gold Edition. As ever, this terrific blended malt is made exclusively with whiskies distilled on the Isle of Islay, though for this expression, each one has been aged for at least 25 years. There will be two more bottlings in the Vintage Series, but Douglas Laing has really started the show with a showstopper! A release of 3,000 bottles.
Bringing a unique taste of his island home of Islay, detect a more gentle and mature side of Big Peat on the nose, with boat varnish, beachy rock pools and a smoky barbecue backdrop. The palate opens as sweetly-peated as ever and warms to later creosote, black pepper and chimney smoke. The finish displays that same warm depth of sweet personality before deliciously damp bonfire ash, coal dust and charred meat appear.

Tried it at Whisky Live in London - was my highlight of the show.
