Big Peat Christmas Edition and Scallywag Winter Edition 2023 by Douglas Laing

The Big Peat Christmas Edition 2023 is a unique and unforgettable product that will put any whiskey lover in the Christmas spirit. In contrast to previous editions, this whiskey was matured in sherry casks for the first time, giving it a special, Christmassy touch. The taste of this whiskey is rich and complex, with notes of dried fruits, cocoa and spicy oak. In addition, the Hebridean sea air, the peated barley malt and the characteristic smoke of Big Peat give this whiskey a unique touch.

This bottling is offered at natural cask strength of 54.8% and bottled without coloring or chill filtration. Santa's attractive packaging features a luxurious foil gift tube featuring the bearded Fisherman of Islay decorating his Christmas tree with a star. The limited edition will be available from September 13, 2023 and can be purchased at select retailers in markets such as Europe, America (Big Peat only) and Asia.

The Big Peat Christmas Edition 2023 is an irresistible offering for whiskey lovers and collectors looking for something unique and special. The combination of the first-class quality of this whiskey and the elaborate packaging make it a perfect gift for the Christmas season. The price of ~£60.00 (around €54 at Deliawhisky.de) is reasonable and appropriate for this special whiskey, which will become one of the most popular and sought-after whiskeys on the market.

The Scallywag Winter Edition 2023 is the latest addition to the annual winter series, created specifically for lovers of excellent single malts. As in previous editions, this edition is stored exclusively in sherry casks, consisting of the most famous Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks.

This edition offers a rich and robust blend of Speyside single malts, guaranteeing a unique taste in every bottle. The nose is seduced by aromas of warm gingerbread, spicy oak and orange peel. The palate meets all expectations with layers of cocoa and juicy berries complementing a nutty malt style. Another highlight is the finish, which captivates with dates, forest fruits and winter spices.

As with previous editions, the Scallywag Winter Edition 2023 was bottled unfiltered and without additional coloring, so that the natural flavors and colors are preserved. Bottled at a natural cask strength of 52.5% , it is presented in a high-quality mother-of-pearl gift box. Even the cheeky fox terrier has made the journey to the far north to marvel at the breathtaking northern lights.

The Scallywag Winter Edition 2023 is therefore the perfect companion for anyone who longs for a special taste experience in the cold winter time. With its extraordinary recipe and special flair, it is a must-have for every single malt lover who likes the highest quality and flavor nuances. The price will be around ~£65 (around €75 at Deliawhisky.de).
