The Big Peat The Thropaigeach Edition DL Feis Ile 2024 is a limited edition whisky bottle with a unique and special expression, presented in a distinctive black bottle with pirate-themed elements. This annual release is a must-have for Big Peat whisky fans, as each sip brings out the pirate in you with its sea shanty tunes and pirate-like phrases.
This year's release is a tropical pirate edition, with a finish on specially selected Caribbean rum casks, giving it the name 'Thropaigeach Edition' (Gaelic for 'tropical'). The rum cask finish results in a whisky that is dominated by a typical strong peaty smoke with rich flavors of flambeed banana and grilled meat.
Bottled at 48% ABV, this whisky has natural color and no chill filtration. This limited edition blend of Islay malts, carefully curated by Douglas Laing, stands out for its smoky profile, which is typical of Islay whiskies. The rum cask finish adds a sweet and spicy dimension that complements the intense peat aroma and creates a deep, complex character.
