Peat’s Beast Single Malt Unchillfiltered [700ML]

Description

Looking for a whisky that delivers serious peat power without breaking the bank?

Peat’s Beast Single Malt Unchillfiltered represents exceptional value in the peated whisky category, crafted by independent bottler Fox Fitzgerald from a mystery Scottish distillery. This non-chillfiltered expression maintains its natural oils and character at a robust 40% ABV, delivering intensity that rivals expressions costing twice as much. Unlike mainstream peated whiskies, this single malt offers the raw, uncompromising character that serious peat lovers crave, comparable to our Ardbeg 10 Year Old but with its own mysterious personality.

**Technical Specifications:**
