SUMMARY:Peat Plants II Preview at the New Syd
DESCRIPTION:Peat Plants II is coming soon…but you get a special sneak peek\, Tassie!\n  \nAs some of you may know\, Peat Plants\, two years ago now\, was the first ever Creators Collection to be bottled and released. Now\, we’re excited to bring you the second Peat Plants — PEAT PLANTS II! A series of four releases across our new ‘Bold & Peaty’ and ‘Smoky & Fruity’ Flavour Profiles. \n“This collection celebrates the powerful and medicinal nature of West Coast peat. We have selected a variety of expressions from Islay along with some similarly robust whisky from the Isle of Mull. These phenol-packed casks cover a spectrum from deeply tropical fruit and smoke through to intense carbolic character. There’s so much flavour diversity to be found in this collection\, in both spirit style and cask type. A real celebration of peat.” — Euan Campbell\, Head of Whisky Creation. \nWe are absolutely delighted to be able to present these four whiskies (alongside two welcome drams) to our members at the New Sydney hotel in April ahead of its National release in Outturn.
