Big Peat 2010 Feis Ile 2025: A Vintage Islay Blended Malt

Big Peat returns with a special vintage release for Feis Ile 2025, the annual celebration of Islay's whisky heritage. This 15-year-old blended malt was bottled exclusively for the festival and represents a noteworthy addition to the brand's portfolio. Bottled at a robust 50% ABV without chill-filtration or added colour, this release delivers an uncompromising expression of what Big Peat stands for.

Distilled in 2010 and bottled in 2025, every drop is guaranteed to be at least 15 years old. The non-chill-filtered and non-coloured approach underscores the authenticity of this vintage variant. It's a release that captures the essence of Islay's distinctive peated character in its purest form.

On the nose, campfire smoke, salt and peat dominate, accompanied by briny seaweed notes and medicinal undertones. The palate reveals citrus and pepper alongside burnt peat and medicinal qualities. The finish is spicy and warming, with vanilla, black pepper and dried spices creating a lingering conclusion. This is an unpolished, intensely peated Big Peat for enthusiasts who embrace Islay's full-bodied, smoky character.
