Cask strength peated whisky

This page lists peated whisky bottled at cask strength, with its lowest current UK price. Cask strength means the whisky was not diluted with water before bottling, so strengths run well above the standard 40% to 46% and vary from batch to batch. Names include Laphroaig 10 Year Old Cask Strength, Kilchoman’s cask strength editions and Peat’s Beast Batch Strength, alongside peated cask-strength releases from distilleries such as Talisker, Amrut and Compass Box.

Cask strength is not a single strength, so check the ABV on each bottle, and note that batch editions change between releases. Most peat tags here are inferred from the distillery’s house style rather than a label figure. Prices are the best current in-stock offer from the UK retailers we check (how we compare prices).
