For Peat's Sake: Coastal Cruising

Cruise the coasts of Scotland to unearth a world of peaty flavours from two of Scotland's most iconic regions! A pair of Festival Rare Releases from Campbeltown and Islay sets the stage for this dashing duo of smoky styles. Distillery 93 Rare Release Lock, stock and two smoking funnels marries maritime brine with mechanical oils, honey and tropical fruits in a lightly smoky delivery. This whisky was chosen to celebrate Campbeltown Malts Festival as a more unusual example of 93's style. Distillery 53 Rare Release Floral petrichor is a more typical style of the distillery with a few layers of sherry added into the mix. Simultaneously spicy, sweet and smoky for a complex sipper in the classic Islay style. A first-class flight of perfectly peated drams awaits!

If ordered separately: Distillery 93 Rare Release= $120; Distillery 53 Rare Release= $180.
