The Big Smoke Islay Blended Malt Scotch Whisky

Islay's unique climate and geography impart signature characteristics to Scotch distilled and matured on the island. Despite its small size, the island boasts 130 miles of coastline, and the warm Gulf Stream from the Atlantic Ocean provides for cool winters and mild summers. In addition, the island is largely composed of peat, a phenolic compound that emits smoky aromas when burned. The salty winds and peat bogs of Islay result in Scotch that has a signature salinity and is balanced by a touch of smoke. The Big Smoke Islay Blended Malt Scotch Whisky was crafted by blending together whiskies from some of the island's most iconic distilleries.
