PEAT’S BEAST BATCH STRENGTH
Just when you thought Peat’s Beast couldn’t be more powerful… this is the cask strength version of this rich and monstrously peaty single malt. Like the original, this is packed full of flavour, and with no chill filtration, additives or colouring.
Take the original Peat’s Beast, already a monster, with some of the highest peat levels to be found in whisky, and imagine it at a full 52.1% ABV.
Peat flavours the spirit not only when it’s used to fuel the fires that dry the malted barley, but also through the water source local to the distillery, which is thought to contribute around 15% of the final flavour of the whisky. The result is robust, rich and smoky, yet with a silky, smooth finish.
Peat’s Beast combines whiskies of various ages and styles, but all originating from the same Speyside Distillery, hence its classification as a single malt.
Peated malted barley.
This one’s definitely not for mixing, but rather for appreciating in all of its unadulterated glory.

70cl
52.1% ABV
Deceptively elegant, with delicate honeyed notes, vanilla and spices, before the peat makes itself felt with bonfire smoke, sea spray and cardamom.
Seductive notes of banana cake, thick treacle and mocha, with a whiff of sweet pineapple, ginger and cumin.
Silky smooth, with enduring peatiness.
