- Description
- Duncan Taylor's Big Smoke 60 delivers a younger, more forceful interpretation of their Auld Reekie blend, with a 10-year maturation concentrating peat smoke and complexity into a higher-strength expression. Intensity and layered smokiness dominate, offering more punch than the standard version while retaining the blend's architectural balance. A choice for those who want peated blended malt with assertive presence.
