About this bottle

Big Peat’s Big Peat Heroes Edition Scotch Whisky is a scotch whisky from Scotland in our whiskey range. It is bottled at 48% ABV, in a 700 ml bottle. Producer tasting notes — on the nose: Smoked meats and earthy peat, with layers of vanilla and cinnamon underneath; on the palate: Brown sugar, oatcakes with just a smidgeon of apple chutney, yet more drying smoke; finish: Hints of lemon shine out behind charred oak and sea salt.

Serving & pairing

Serve neat with a few drops of water to open the aromas. Lighter styles suit smoked salmon and shortbread; peated styles suit blue cheese and oysters.

Single malt or blended Scotch?

Single malt means one distillery, 100% malted barley, pot stills. Blended Scotch mixes malt whisky from several distilleries with lighter grain whisky, aiming for consistency and approachability. Blended malt (no grain whisky) sits between the two. Neither is inherently better; single malts show one distillery’s character while good blends show balance.

Birthday gift

Quick to order. Worth the wait.

“Checkout at Spirit Hives took a minute. The bottle itself took a little longer than a supermarket run. I ordered ahead for my brother's birthday and it arrived in time.”
Derek C.Ordered in advance
Collector order

Patient, and then very pleased.

“If you need a bottle tomorrow, this is not that shop. If you want something Spirit Hives actually has and you can wait a stretch, it works. Mine turned up and it was exactly the label I wanted.”
James R.Hard-to-find Scotch
Corporate gifts

Forty gifts, one conversation.

“Corporate bottles for clients. Spirit Hives suggested three price bands, one invoice, and the labels were consistent. Several clients asked where they came from.”
Tom H.40 bottles
First Scotch

Peat without the leap of faith.

“I wanted Islay without buying a wall of smoke. The tasting notes on Spirit Hives pointed to a gentler malt. It opened a door instead of slamming one.”
Jonah K.Islay single malt
