Big Peat 10 Years Mizunara 75 Years Anniversary Whisky

Celebrate 75 years of Douglas Laing with a whisky that marries the smoky essence of Islay with the delicate elegance of Japanese Mizunara oak. The Big Peat 10 Years Mizunara 75 Years Anniversary is a special edition release that showcases the fusion of Scottish and Japanese whisky craftsmanship. Aged for a decade, with the final two years spent in rare virgin Mizunara oak casks from the Japanese island of Hokkaido, this whisky offers an exceptional balance of power and refinement. Expect bold peat smoke, balanced with the subtle, complex notes that only Mizunara casks can impart.

Production details: This whisky is a unique blend of single malts from Islay, matured for 10 years, with the final two years being finished in Mizunara oak casks. Known for its porous nature, Mizunara oak infuses the whisky with complex flavors like sandalwood, coconut, and spices, complementing the signature smoky and peaty profile of Big Peat. The result is a refined and surprisingly smooth spirit, honoring the marriage of two whisky traditions in a single exceptional bottle.

Serving suggestions: Best enjoyed neat to experience the full spectrum of its unique flavors, or with a few drops of water to soften the peat and bring out the subtle notes from the Mizunara cask. Pair with smoked meats or rich chocolate desserts to complement its smoky and sweet character. This dram is perfect for special occasions or a celebratory toast to Douglas Laing’s 75 years of whisky excellence.

Additional information: Released as a limited edition to mark Douglas Laing's 75th anniversary, this whisky is a rare find. Combining Islay's powerful peat with the delicate influence of Japanese oak, it stands out as a testament to innovation in the world of whisky. Collectors and peat lovers alike will want to add this piece of history to their collection before it's gone.
