Peat Chimney Whisky

About Peat Chimney

Peat Chimney is a blended malt Scotch whisky from Wemyss Malts, its name referring to the peat smoke that traditionally rose from Scottish chimneys. For newcomers it's an accessible way into smoky whisky without the full intensity of an Islay dram; for collectors it's notable that Wemyss Malts compose the blend from their own malt list sourced across Scotland, making Peat Chimney a kind of journey through the country's peated regions in a single glass.

History & Background

Peat Chimney is a peated blended malt whisky from Wemyss Malts, the Scottish family business that since the mid-2000s has specialised in selecting and composing characterful whisky releases from across Scotland. The name refers directly to the distinctive smoke from peat-fired pagoda roofs that still marks some of Scotland's malting houses.
