Peaty Whiskey

On this page you will find our large selection of peaty whiskey. Peaty whiskeys are part of the many scotch whiskeys and come with their very own unique flavor and provide a fantastic new addition to your whiskey collection.

Peaty whiskey originates on the Scottish island of Islay. For generations, Islay has dried the barley used in whiskey over a peat bonfire, giving peaty whiskey its unique flavor.

With us, you will find in this category a wide variety of world-famous peaty whiskey served in bars around the globe, including the amazing Laphroaig, the powerful Bowmore Tempest and many more. Whatever whiskey you prefer, we are positive that we can find a bottle and brand that fits your palate!

Bruichladdich 2010 Islay Barley Single Islay Malt Whisky 70 cl 50%

Item no.: 22227865406-barley

2010 Islay Barley is a tribute to local farmers. The grain is grown on Islay itself, and the whisky shows what terroir means when the land is allowed to speak through the glass.
Expert description
Bruichladdich 2010 Islay Barley is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky, distilled from locally grown barley and bottled at 50%.
The grain for this release is grown by local farmers on Islay, part of Bruichladdich's ongoing work to show how the island's own soil shapes flavour. The whisky is matured in a combination of American and French oak casks.
The result is an unpeated single malt where the grain's earthy character and the sweetness of the casks play off each other with no peat to complicate the picture.
Tasting notes
Nose
Fresh barley and apple, with a light honeyed sweetness, an earthy base and a touch of vanilla oak.
Palate
Round and malty with notes of pear, citrus and a gentle spiciness from the French oak.
Finish
Medium length and softly rounded, with a finish of honey and lightly toasted grain.

Item no.: 22227865413-18747

Item no.: 22227865366-845

Staoisha is the name Bunnahabhain gives its peated spirit, taken from the small loch that supplies the distillery's water – and here it meets a deep sherry sweetness.

Bunnahabhain Toiteach A DHA Single Islay Malt Whisky 46,3%

Item no.: 22227865392-608

"Toiteach" is Gaelic for smoky, and "A Dhà" means number two – a reminder that Bunnahabhain can also play the role its island neighbours are best known for.
Expert's Description
Bunnahabhain Toiteach A Dhà is a Single Islay Malt Whisky matured in a mix of sherry and bourbon casks and bottled at 46.3%.
Where Bunnahabhain's core range is traditionally known for its light, unpeated style, Toiteach A Dhà turns that on its head. Here the peated Staoisha spirit is allowed to take centre stage, resulting in one of the most heavily smoked whiskies the distillery sends out.
It's a great chance to try a different side of Bunnahabhain, without ever leaving the distillery's own core range.
Tasting Notes
Nose
Unmistakable peat smoke meets a spiced warmth and a touch of sweet fruit.
Palate
Dates and sweet fruit mingle with peat smoke and crushed pepper as the whisky moves across the tongue.
Finish
Dry and slightly dusty with lingering smoke as the final impression.

Campbeltown Loch Blended Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 46%

Item no.: 059763-615-471

Where the Kintyre peninsula runs into the sea and the waves still roll into Campbeltown Loch, the story of Scotland's smallest and once most famous whisky region lives on. This bottle gathers that story into a single glass - the three distilleries still keeping Campbeltown alive.
Expert Description
Campbeltown Loch is a Campbeltown Blended Malt Scotch Whisky composed of single malt whisky from all three of the region's distilleries and bottled at 46%.
Behind the bottle stands J&A Mitchell & Co, the owners of Springbank Distillery, who blend malt from Springbank, Glen Scotia and Glengyle into a shared tribute to Campbeltown. Springbank itself contributes three different styles to the overall character - the lighter Hazelburn, the medium-peated Springbank and the heavily peated Longrow - matured in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks. The result is a blend that gathers the region's maritime salinity, cask fruit and a whisper of smoke into one glass.
Tasting Notes
Nose
Soft peach and apricot meet honey and a touch of citrus zest, while a hint of salty soot lingers in the background.
Palate
Oily in texture with herbaceous notes creeping in beneath sweet vanilla caramel and juicy baked fruit. Salty sea spray and baking spice keep it balanced, with a whisper of peat poking through.
Finish
Long and warming, with smoked almonds, oak and a maritime salinity that never quite lets go - a dry, earthy close.

Caol Ila 1991/2009 Chieftains 18 Years Single Islay Malt Whisky 48%

Item no.: 222556-635

1991 was an unusual year to distil Caol Ila. The distillery had just gone through a modernisation and found its current style. Ian MacLeod's Chieftains series took a cask from that year and gave it a finish in German oak – before it was bottled in 2009.
Expert's description
Caol Ila 1991/2009 Chieftains 18 Years is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky finished in a German oak cask (cask no. 91821), bottled at 48% without chill filtration and with natural colour. 288 bottles.
Chieftains is Ian MacLeod's series for independent single-cask bottlings from Scottish distilleries. Ian MacLeod Distillers – owners of Glengoyne and Tamdhu – have had their finger on the pulse of Scotch whisky since 1933.
German oak (Quercus Robur) is denser and gives more tannin and spice than American oak casks. It gives a spicy finish to a Caol Ila that is otherwise elegant and balanced – light tobacco smoke, sea salt, citrus and green apples with well-integrated smoke.
Tasting notes
Nose
Light tobacco smoke, sea salt and seaweed combined with citrus and green apples. A subtle sweet malt profile and a hint of spice from the German oak.
Palate
Soft and complex. Dry mineral smoke and pleasant sweetness in balance. Citrus, pear and lemon complemented by honey, vanilla and a touch of salty liquorice. The smoke is elegant and well-integrated.
Finish
Long, clean and persistent – fresh smoke, light salt and a rounded fruity sweetness blending with malt and spice from the German oak.

Caol Ila 2012 Little Brown Dog 13 year old Refill Butt Single Islay Malt Whisky 55,7%

Item no.: 222355-9005

Bottled on 12 February 2026 – almost to the day fourteen years after distillation in April 2012. Little Brown Dog chose a refill butt for this batch: the largest standard cask, previously used, working slowly and leaving its subtle signature on the distillate.
Expert's description
Caol Ila 2012/2026 Little Brown Dog Spirits 13 Years is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a single refill butt cask, bottled at 55.7% without chill filtration and with natural colour.
Little Brown Dog is a British independent bottler with a single-cask focus. For this batch they chose a refill butt – a 500-litre cask that has already matured whisky and retained a discreet, oxidised wood influence. That is where the 'wonderfully oxidised' character described by tasters comes from.
The result is a whisky with classic Caol Ila freshness and salty maritime peat smoke, wrapped in a lightly oxidised, nutty-complex structure. Wax candle, driftwood bonfire and sea urchin are tasting descriptions that reflect a product of precise, controlled craft.
Tasting notes
Nose
Wax candle and a driftwood bonfire on the beach – fresh and light with clear Islay smoke. Toasted grain, a touch of seaweed and a soft, oxidised depth.
Palate
Toasted almonds and sea urchin – umami-rich and salty with smoke and a 'dirty martini' oily character. Complex but harmonious and easy to drink.
Finish
Fresh and lively: gorse, clear saltiness and maritime peat smoke that stays light and elegant throughout.

Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197279785

James Eadie is a Worcestershire-based independent bottler with a single aim: to find casks that say something interesting. For this batch of Caol Ila from 2012, they chose refill bourbon casks and made a small batch – a blended vatting delivering more consistency than a single cask.
Expert's description
Caol Ila 2012/2020 James Eadie 8 Years is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in refill bourbon casks (small batch), bottled at 46% without chill filtration and with natural colour.
James Eadie is an independent bottler from Worcestershire, England, founded by Tristan Eadie as a revival of the family's historic whisky trade from the 19th century. Their small batch approach combines casks for consistency and accessibility over single-cask variation.
Refill bourbon casks give a discreet wood influence that lets the distillate's own character come through. For Caol Ila at 8 years, that means clean, fresh and maritime smoke – toffee, sea mist and green apples.
Tasting notes
Nose
Toffee, sea mist and green apples – fresh and direct with a clear note of Caol Ila's peat smoke. No heavy wood influence, just the distillate's own voice.
Palate
Light and fresh. Smoke, fresh citrus and a soft toffee sweetness. Good balance for the age – accessible and clean.

Relatively short but clean. Smoke and salt with a fresh, green close.

Adelphi tests around 25 casks for every one they approve. That is not accidental. Alex Bruce and Charles Maclean sit with samples and ask: is this exceptional? Fewer than four per cent of the casks offered to them get a yes. This Caol Ila cask from 2013 was one of them.
Expert's description
Caol Ila 2013/2021 Adelphi Selection 8 Years is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a single bourbon cask (no. 300371), bottled at cask strength 58.4% without chill filtration and with natural colour. 324 bottles.
Adelphi Selection is an Edinburgh-based independent bottler with roots in a distilling dynasty going back to 1826. The same principle always applies: only the casks that truly impress make it into a bottle bearing Adelphi's name. The bourbon cask produced a clean, classic Caol Ila expression – maritime notes, peat smoke and a touch of sweetness.
The high cask strength of 58.4% and 324 bottles make this a rare bottling for those who want Caol Ila without compromise.
Tasting notes
Nose
Clean and maritime with peat smoke upfront. Salty sea air, light citrus and a soft vanilla note from the bourbon wood. Fresh and direct.
Palate
Concentrated and salty. Smoke, citrus and good body. The bourbon sweetness is present but understated – Caol Ila's maritime notes dominate.
Finish
Long and warm with persistent smoke and a lightly peppery dryness. Add a drop of water for more openness.

Caol Ila 2014/2021 Murray McDavid 6 year old casks #2005618 Single Islay Malt Whisky 46%

Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197278388

Pedro Ximenez is the sweetest sherry that exists – thick, dark and almost syrupy. When Caol Ila's peat smoke encounters seven months in PX hogsheads, the result is surprisingly subtle: the sweetness works its way into the smoke and gives it a fruity, dried dimension.
Expert's description
Caol Ila 2014/2021 Murray McDavid 6 Years Benchmark Series is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in bourbon hogshead casks with a finish in Ximenez-Spinola PX sherry hogshead casks (nos. 2005618/19/23), bottled at 46% without chill filtration and with natural colour.
Murray McDavid's Benchmark Series is an experimental line that systematically explores cask combinations in larger batches. The PX finish here lasts seven months – short enough to preserve Caol Ila's character, long enough for the Spanish dessert wine to leave its mark.
1,242 bottles were produced. Ximenez-Spinola is one of the most acclaimed PX houses in Jerez, and it is from them that Murray McDavid sourced these casks.
Tasting notes
Nose
Dried fruit – raisins and dark plums – blends with Caol Ila's maritime smoke. A note of mocha and orange peel gives depth.
Palate
Delicate and fruity. Smoke and PX sweetness find each other in good balance. Mocha, dark dried fruit and a soft, lightly oily texture.
Finish
Gentle and lingering. Smoke and sweetness fade side by side with a fresh note of smoke and fruit at the end.

Caol Ila 2014/2021 Murray McDavid 6 year old Single Islay Malt Whisky 50%

Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197278387

The world of Cognac and Islay whisky rarely meet – they pull in very different directions. But Murray McDavid found a cask that made them listen to each other: a bourbon hogshead with a finish in first-fill Cognac casks, and Caol Ila's smoke blending with the French spirit's sweetness.
Expert's description
Caol Ila 2014/2021 Murray McDavid 6 Years Benchmark Series is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in bourbon hogshead casks with a finish in first-fill Cognac casks (nos. 1925785/193/194), bottled at 50% without chill filtration and with natural colour.
Murray McDavid's Benchmark Series systematically experiments with unusual cask combinations in larger batches. This batch produced 1,694 bottles. The 14-month finish in Cognac casks contributes a sweet, lightly winey complexity lifting it above a simple bourbon profile.
Caol Ila at six years is fresh and direct – the smoke is clear, the distillate body is present, and the Cognac finish adds a sweeter frame without erasing the distillate's maritime character.
Tasting notes
Nose
Sweet and smoky at once. Sweet peat, ginger and apple – the Cognac cask adds a lightly fruity glow behind Caol Ila's typical maritime smoke.
Palate
Soft and fruity with good body. Caramel and smoke meet notes of ginger and apple. The Cognac sweetness is discreet but notable.
Finish
Clean and fresh with salted caramel and a light medicinal Caol Ila note at the end.

Caol Ila 2015/2023 Wilson & Morgan 8 years old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 57.1%

Item no.: 059763-615-690

When new, unused oak meets Caol Ila's already robust smoke profile, something unexpected happens: instead of cancelling each other out, they pull in the same direction. Wilson & Morgan used Virgin Oak casks as a finish on this 8-year expression, and the result is a Caol Ila with a forceful character that surprises.
Expert's description
Caol Ila 2015/2023 Wilson & Morgan 8 Years is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in refill hogsheads with a finish in first-fill Virgin Oak casks, bottled at 57.1%.
Wilson & Morgan is an Italian, family-owned bottler founded in Barolo country in 1992 with a keen eye for Scottish casks. This is the 2nd batch of the series from Caol Ila, with cask numbers #314293-97 and #314299-301. 2,383 bottles were produced.
The Virgin Oak cask – never previously used – is intense: it contributes powerful notes of vanilla and coconut along with spice, but none of the buttery sweetness that a sherry cask would give. Combined with Caol Ila's maritime smoke, an aromatic backbone emerges that is clear and vivid.
Tasting notes
Nose
Warm vanilla and coconut from the Virgin Oak open, followed by Caol Ila's peat smoke and fresh citrus. A hint of cinnamon and cloves in the background.
Palate
Robust and aromatic. Smoke and oak spice sit close together, with an underlying freshness of green apple and citrus peel. No buttery sweetness – direct, clean character.
Finish
Medium-long. Spice and smoke linger with a dry, lightly bitter ending from the fresh oak.

Caol Ila 5 year old Murray McDavid Justino Maderia Cask finish Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky alc 51,5%

Item no.: 22227865364-35465799999

Five years is a short time. But Murray McDavid knew what they had – a young, vibrant Caol Ila distillate that needed a pivot point. Justino Madeira casks from the Atlantic island provided it: a sweet, slightly oxidised wine sweetness meeting the young smoke halfway.
Expert's description
Caol Ila 5 Years Murray McDavid Benchmark Series Justino Madeira Cask Finish is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled in 2018, bottled in 2023 at 51.5% with a Justino Madeira cask finish, without chill filtration and with natural colour.
Murray McDavid is a Scottish bottler with a long history and a clear philosophy: find interesting casks, experiment with unexpected combinations and bottle with respect for the distillate's character. The Benchmark Series is the line of larger batches – this batch yielded 1,803 bottles.
Justino Madeira's casks – from the Portuguese Atlantic island – are known for their sweet, nutty and lightly oxidised profile. Caol Ila's young smoke meets it and produces an expression both fresh and surprisingly complex for its age.
Tasting notes
Nose
Young, fresh Caol Ila smoke meets sweet, nutty Madeira notes. Dried fruit, a warm spice note and a hint of salt.
Palate
Light and fresh with a sweet Madeira frame around Caol Ila's smoke. Toffee, light citrus and a slightly medicinal edge showing the distillate's youth.
Finish
Relatively short but fresh. Smoke and Madeira sweetness close with light saltiness and a little pepper.

Clan Denny Islay Edition Small Batch Release Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 40%

Clan Denny Islay Edition Small Batch Release Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 40%

Clan Denny Islay Edition Small Batch Release is a characterful single malt whisky from Douglas Laing & Co., known for their expertise in crafting unique and authentic whisky experiences.

On the nose, you are immediately greeted by classic Islay aromas of peat smoke, sea breeze, and a subtle medicinal hint of iodine and seaweed. At the same time, sweet and fruity notes such as vanilla, honey, and a touch of citrus emerge, creating a balanced and inviting aromatic profile. There are also subtle traces of toasted oak and spice, suggesting a complex and layered composition.

The palate is smooth and rounded, offering a fine balance between sweetness and smoke. Flavors of apple caramel, baked pear, and candied orange are complemented by salted licorice, campfire smoke, and a touch of nuttiness. The texture is lightly oily, revealing hints of oak spice from the carefully selected casks in which the whisky matured.

The finish is long and lingering, with dry smoke, warm spices, and a pleasant sweetness that gradually fades, leaving behind a sensation of salty sea air and a hint of dark chocolate.

Connemara 12 year old Peated Irish Single Malt Whiskey 40%

Item no.: 22227865382-12

Twelve years of maturation gives Connemara's peated style extra depth, without losing the rustic, earthy character the brand is known for.
Expert Review
Connemara 12 Year Old is a peated Irish Single Malt Whiskey matured for 12 years, bottled at 40%.
The whiskey builds on Connemara's signature style, where the malt is dried over peat fire following Irish tradition. With 12 years of maturation, the peat character has time to merge with notes of honey, malt and oak, giving a more complex and full-bodied experience than the brand's younger release. The whiskey shares the same light, golden colour, but a deeper and more rounded flavour profile.
Tasting Notes
Nose
Smoky peat with mature notes of honey and oak.
Palate
Full and complex, with malt, dried fruit and a warm peat character.

Long, gently smoky and lightly sweet.

Item no.: 22227865413-8888

A refill cask from 2006 sat quietly maturing while the world outside changed. When it was finally tapped in 2016, it turned out to hold one of the most ash-laden, smoky expressions of Croftengea you can find.
Expert's Description

Rich and heavy with plums, figs and dates – no smoke on the nose.
Palate
Smoke and ashy tobacco meet milk chocolate, smoked meat and oily malt, with a touch of pink peppercorn and sweet toffee.

Item no.: 2222777-8663

Nose
Heavy smoke and earthy peat meet sweet molasses and preserved tropical fruit from the rum cask.

Edradour Ballechin 13 year old SFTC 2004/2018 Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 53,3%

Item no.: 059755-7756

In a green Perthshire valley, Edradour's tiny copper stills have been distilling whisky since 1825. But there's another, smokier side to this quiet farm distillery. Ballechin takes its name from a neighbouring distillery that closed nearly a century ago, and the name now lives on in these heavily peated bottlings.
The expert's description
Edradour Ballechin 13 years old SFTC 2004/2018 is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a port cask and bottled at 53.3%.
The whisky belongs to the Straight From The Cask series, where every bottling comes from a single cask with no filtration and no added colour. This particular release was distilled in April 2004 and matured for 13 years in cask no. 199, a port cask that has given the whisky a deep reddish-brown hue and a wine-like sweetness that meets Ballechin's signature peat smoke head-on. The series has long been discontinued, and only 396 bottles were drawn from this one cask.
Tasting notes
Nose
Red berries and dark chocolate arrive first, quickly followed by pecans and damp oak. The port cask lends a sweet, almost wine-like depth that melts into a heavy, earthy peat smoke.
Palate
Strawberries and dark brown sugar sit in layers over the peat, which is present without ever taking over. Spiced oak, caramel and a touch of dried herbs round things off.
Finish
Long and lingering, with flamed orange peel, dark smoke and black pepper, closing on warm spice and a sweetness that takes its time to fade.

The whisky was distilled on 25 July 2004 and matured for a full 20 years in a single cask, cask #347, a 1st fill Old Port Pipe, before being bottled on the exact same date in 2024. The port cask has given the whisky a deep, ruby-red colour and a rich, fruity sweetness that meets Ballechin's powerful peat smoke in a full, complex balance. Only 691 bottles were drawn.
Tasting notes
Nose
Dark berries and caramelised sugar meet heather honey and a hint of leather, with earthy smoke deep underneath.
Palate
Luxurious and silky with sweetness from the port cask, layers of peat smoke, caramelised nuts and a fine spiciness of cinnamon.
Finish
Long, warm and lingering with dried fruit, sweet oak, ash and a hint of dark chocolate.

Port pipes are long, slender casks originally designed for transporting port from the Douro Valley — their shape gives the whisky more wood contact than a standard cask of the same volume.

Edradour Ballechin 2004/2023 Madeira Cask 19 years old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 53.5%

Item no.: 059763-615-162

Two Madeira casks, 19 years of patience and Ballechin's insistent peat — the result is a whisky that feels both sun-warmed and smoky at once.
The expert's description
Edradour Ballechin 2004/2023 Madeira Cask 19 years old is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in Madeira puncheons and bottled at 53.5%.
The whisky was distilled in April 2004 and matured for 19 years across two Madeira puncheons, cask no. 184 and 189, before being bottled in July 2023. The Madeira's characteristic, lightly oxidised sweetness has melted into Ballechin's peat smoke, creating a whisky with both sun-ripened fruit character and earthy smoke. Only 1,323 bottles were drawn.
Tasting notes
Nose
Dried apricot and caramelised sugar meet an earthy, faintly medicinal smoke, with a hint of toasted nuts underneath.
Palate
Sweet and full-bodied with raisin, burnt sugar and walnut, before a warm, lingering peat smoke takes over.
Finish
Long, with notes of dried fig, soot and a fine, bitter cocoa tone.

Investment potential
This release is assessed to have medium investment potential, largely due to 19 years of maturation on just two Madeira casks and a limited bottle count. This is a general assessment based on available information about rarity and demand, not a guarantee of future value growth.
Did you know?
Madeira casks were historically popular for whisky maturation because the fortified wine from Madeira held up well during long sea voyages — a tradition that today lives on as a sought-after but rare cask type.
