Peated single malts have never been more popular, and the Perfect Peaty Collection embraces the greatest names of the genre. Islay is the spiritual home of peated whiskies, and the Collection includes examples from some truly iconic Islay distilleries, namely Ardbeg, Bowmore, Laphroaig and the lost and much lamented Port Ellen. The inclusion in the Collection of one of Scotland’s most celebrated whiskies in the shape of Highland Park from the northern Orkney Islands demonstrates that not all fine peated whiskies have to be distilled on Islay. Highland Park combines peated malt with former sherry cask maturation to produce something truly distinctive, but then this is an extremely distinctive – and distinguished – Collection.
