The Peat Monster Compass Box

The wine

The Peat Monster is a bottling born from a limited edition named The Monster which was released for the Park Avenue Liquor Shop in New York. Its huge success led it to take a place in the permanent range in 2003, becoming The Peat Monster in the process. The blend uses a base of Laphroaig and Caol Ila which is balanced by several Highland malts (Teaninich, Clynelish and Dailuaine) matured in French oak casks.
