- Description
- Douglas Laing's Beach BBQ Edition combines peated malts from across Islay into a single blended expression, bottled at a robust 54.2% ABV as a limited Fèis Ìle 2022 release. The nose and palate deliver the expected peat smoke layered with maritime salinity and subtle maritime brininess, balanced by oak structure from the marriage of component malts. At cask strength, the texture is viscous and warming, with smoke that persists through a medium finish. This 3,000-bottle release suits Islay enthusiasts seeking a higher-proof, less-marketed perspective on island peat.
