The Ultimate Distillation of Scotland's Islands
46.8% ABV · Maritime and Smoky
An extraordinary encapsulation of the very best Single Malts distilled amongst others on the glorious islands of Islay, Arran, Jura and Orkney, Rock Island is a subtle, smoky and sweet celebration of the sea.
Remarkably complex - salty and smoked, yet barley sweet
Nose | Wave-soaked rocks and fresh, salty oceans |
Palate | Sweet peat paralleled with smoke, honey, damp ash and late pepper |
Finish | A long finish that replicates all that has gone before |
Set Sail Around the Scottish Islands
Step onto any of Scotland’s Whisky islands and you’ll first be struck by the apparent calm and tranquillity offered by island life. Delve a little deeper, though, and your heart will soar with the excitement and character of the Distilleries that call these islands home.
As Natural As It Gets
Proudly bottled at a high strength of 46.8% and offered without colouring or chill-filtration, Rock Island, a Blended 100% Malt, is produced in small batches by marrying together and highlighting some of the finest and most characterful aged Single Malts from Scotland’s esteemed Whisky islands.
Sail Away on the Dram of a Decade
Scotland’s islands are famed not just for their somewhat unhurried way of life, but even more so for the remarkable Single Malts distilled there, bursting with the flavours of the sea. Rock Island 10 Years Old is a unique marriage of some of the finest of these Malts, artfully combined to create an inimitable maritime Malt, packed with sea-spray, gentle peat smoke and an undeniably moreish quality.
Enjoy a brunchtime with more bite. Make your own Bloody Joseph by topping up a dram of Rock Island with a quality tomato juice, ideally served in a sling glass. Add a squeeze of lemon and a pinch of salt and pepper. Finish by adding as much hot sauce as you can handle!
Try spritzing your next platter of seafood with a mist of Rock Island. The salty, savoury flavours of the shellfish will draw out the sweetly peated, maritime notes of our Island Malt. You could say it is sensation-shell.
Representing all that is Islay in a one bottle, Big Peat brings together some of our preferred Islay Malts, including those distilled at Ardbeg, Bowmore, Caol Ila and Port Ellen Distilleries.
