Big Peat Blended Malt / Christmas Edition 2012 Blended Whisky
A special Christmas edition of Big Peat Islay blended malt whisky. Big Peat is made by vatting whisky from only Islay distilleries: Ardbeg, Bowmore and Port Ellen inside this one.

This special edition has been bottled at Cask Strength and has had its label and presentation tube festively redesigned.

This dram has a white wine-like color.

Nose (91): strong. peat, honey, citrus, vanilla, earth, coffee.

Palate (91): powerful, oily. peat, honey, citrus, earth, coffee.

Finish (91): longer than average. peat, pepper, honey.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Big Peat Blended Malt / Christmas Edition 2012 Blended Whisky with 91 points over 100.
