Single malt Peat’s Beast debuted in August 2011 in the offer of Fox Fitzgerald Trading Company.
The company does not disclose the source of the whisky, leaving the solution to this puzzle to consumers. Fox Fitzgerald was founded in 2010 and is currently owned by Eamonn Jones and Aidan Smith. In the past, they both worked for Whyte & Mackay and to this day, the local blender master, Richard Paterson, signs off on tasting notes for their whisky. One of the distilleries belonging to Whyte & Mackay is Jura, which we know from time to time distills from malt with a high content of phenol compounds. Of course, this is only one hypothesis about the origin of Peat’s Beast. The cask strength edition presented here contains whisky finished in Pedro Ximénez sweet sherry casks.
Aroma: peat smoke, seaweed, undergrowth, raisins, dried figs and dates, plums, toffee, caramel, maple syrup and trace of burnt oak.
Flavor: smoky fruit, figs, dates, cherries, raisins, vanilla, caramel, honey, milk chocolate, a bit of cinnamon and cloves.
Finish: quite long, smoky, with notes of caramel, milk chocolate, raisins soaked in rum and a pinch of cinnamon.

PRODUCENT - Whisky
The whiskey most likely comes from Ireland. Irish monks were making a liquor known as aqua vitae (the Gaelic name uisge beatha is a translation from Latin) as early as the 7th century. It was a mixture obtained by distillation of fruit fermentation products and used exclusively for medicinal purposes as a means of prolonging life, relieving some ailments (such as colic) and diseases (paralysis, smallpox and others). According to legend, whiskey was invented by St. Patrick. From the 17th century, the shortened form uiskie began to be used, and from around 1715 the name took the form of whiskie. The modern name - whiskey - was established only in 1736. Only high-quality glass is used in professional whiskey tastings. The so-called popular tulip glasses, the shape of which allows you to retain the aroma of whiskey, which is important during tasting. During the tasting, apart from the smell, the taste on the tongue, the finish and the balance of the whole are also assessed, often on a scale of 100 points. The whiskey served may be slightly diluted with water, which reduces the intensity of the flavor. It is also popular to serve whiskey with ice (on the rocks) or with cola, but the latter can be controversial.
