Peat gave you another chance… Don’t blow it!

Son of a Peat is a members' exclusive private label inspired by the Flaviar community. We set out to create a high-quality Peated Blended Malt Scotch our members would love—and they do. Each batch is unique and in short supply. A collector’s wet dram sourced from the finest distilleries of Scotland whose names shall remain, well... shrouded in mystery.

BATCH 02 is a worthy successor to the original Son of a Peat. Slightly improved original DNA expands and evolves the taste to new heights. The essence of Islay, Islands, Highland, and the Speyside trickled down the cooling pipes to be reborn a complex peated maelstrom. Another commanding Whisky that sparks the love for peat in the kilns of our hearts.
 
Treated by hand and bottle at the peak of its power. We made damn sure the Whisky got the care it deserves. 47.2% ABV strong, no added color and non-chill filtered.
 
This is a gruff, yet utterly charming dram of both mysterious and chaotic nature. Its flavors are dark, heavy and intense, but also strangely warm and welcoming.

Whisky or Whiskey? The spelling differs geographically. In Scotland and some other parts of the world distilleries usually spell it Whisky; in Ireland and USA they spell it Whiskey.

Tasting Notes
The list of suspects? Quite clear. Peat and smoke with notions of seaweed that take you back to the Scottish shores. Quickly now the sweetness of sherry and honeysuckle step forward and clear the smoke, but just for a bit, till the journey continues towards more earthy, oaky and woody flavor nuances. The finish is buttery and long-lasting.

Gabriel
Gabriel,
Great smoky smell. Honeysuckle (sweetness) at the tip of your tongue with a long finish. Another reviewer mentioned Bowmore which was a delicious follow-up.
 
Sharon
Sharon,
Loved the peaty flavor, and so smooth!
 
Paul
Paul,
Nice blend. A little more burn that I normally like. But great peat balance.
 
Duane
Duane,
The one that started it all. I was skeptical of peated Scotch. I never thought the idea of fighting with your whiskey something i would look forward to. Thankfully, there was no fighting involved with this wonderful dram. Sweet smokey nose with a hint of herbal essence. Rich mouth feel accentuated by flavors of butterscotch and honeyed biscuit. Well rounded with a light brisket. Simply Delicious and Approachable. Son of a Peat has opened me to new adventures. A must have.
 
Edward
Edward,
I would definitely recommend it Smooth and tasty
 
Chris
Chris,
Very impressive! Reminds me of a Bowmore Darkest, which I love.
 
Angela
Angela,
Strong peat flavor with a good finish and nice kick when least expected. I recommend as a good mixer with spicy ginger beer.
 
Russ
Russ,
It's a bit too smoky- more like barbeque than peat
 
Dawson
Dawson,
Very good peaty whiskey, it has good peat, some floral and sweet tones and finishes really well with good earthy tones. I loved being able to pick out the good Islay taste and also loved tasking the sweet undertones that remind me more of a good speyside.
 
David
David,
Nose hit 👃 ; Seaweed, peat and a light smoke Taste 👅 ; Peat and smoke that gives way for some honey and floral notes, Finish ; Some more smoke together with wood and earthy tones, long and full,
 
Steven
Steven,
Just as good as the first batch! Great taste, nice smoky smell and flavor!
 
Mike
Mike,
My first peated whisky. Wonderful aromas were released after a quick splash of water. First taste was kind of overpowering smoke, but it quickly evolved into a complex, tasty experience. As I drank, it quickly grew on me and I am glad that I was able to buy 2 bottles. My only negative was a slight harshness overall. A little more aging and this could become a truly phenomenal whisky.
 
Brandon
Brandon,
Delicious and smoky - Islay style and great neat, on the rocks, or paired with a hazy IPA (as described)!
 
Heather
Heather,
Although we are choosing to save this bottle, rather than taste it yet, swag pack was super cool.
 
SCOTT
SCOTT,
Pure peaty goodness! It was delicious
 
Charles
Charles,
A good dram. The peat is at the front. Very enjoyable for those of us with a fondness for Islay scotch.
 
Bret
Bret,
Happy to have gotten in on the limited run. Very Smokey and earthy and everything harsh in all the good ways. Enjoying it. Great on Ice with some club soda also.
 
Bradley
Bradley,
Love every second of it. So many tastes each sip is a new experience
 
Eric
Eric,
If you're looking for peated scotch to start people on, or to start yourself, this is a great scotch to drink. Son of Peat Batch 02 is not as peaty as Laphroaig or Lagvulin, but will get you on your way to being able to enjoy a glass or 2 of each. This a peaty scotch that you can enjoy multiple glasses of in a single sitting.
 
Jose
Jose,
First time trying peated scotch, at first I was not a fan, the peat smell and taste was different but the more I tried it I began to enjoy, it has a smooth taste
 
Luke
Luke,
I thought this peated scotch was extremely smooth for having nine single malts in it. It's no wonder why this is highly sought out. Half the experience is guessing which single malts they used!!!
 
Amy
Amy,
Bought this for my husband and he asked if I got two bottles. He shared with one of his friends and they loved it as well. He is usually not a peat drinker but this one is just right!
 
Lin
Lin,
By far one of the best scotches I have ever tasted...amazingly smokey and very peat forward. Delightful.
 
Steve
Steve,
If you don't like peaty whiskeys, you won't like it. If you love laphroig, you'll absolutely love this. One of the best peated whiskeys I've ever had. Superior simple flavors.
 
Kyle
Kyle,
Terrible. Tastes like battery acid. I will never buy whiskey without sampling first.
 
Bruce
Bruce,
As can be gathered by some of the other comments, a peaty whisky is not for everyone. For me, it was one of the best peated whiskys I have in my collection. I am lover of Islays. This was unusually smooth for a peated whisky. I can't wait to try Batch 03.
 
Colette
Colette,
Not for me at all, tasted like some kind of hospital.
 
Dan
Dan,
I wasn't crazy about it, though the more I drank...the more I liked it.
 
Robert
Robert,
Love it! Bought 3 bottles and would have bought more. Can't wait for Batch 03!

Just wasn't our cup of tea so to speak.

Excellent
 
Joanna

Delicious and Smokey, I wish I would have bought two bottles.
 
Edward
Edward,
A little disappointed, thought it would be more peat. But still good.
 
Juuso
Juuso,
Exceptional product. I've never jad a product with such strong peat in the start yet pleasant caramel sweetness in the finish.
 
David
David,
Smooth and not overly peated. Not as complex as I would have expected but great flavors all around.
 
Christopher
Christopher,
Absolutely love this PEAT! You can smell it, and taste it! Very smooth! I have yet to be disappointed with a Flaviar collaborated bottle, and from now on I will be purchasing two at a time.
 
Sam
Sam,
PEAT BABY!!! peat and heat. That’s how I would describe this work of art. And the final experience once the fire is out? Smoke baby!!!
 
Ron
Ron,
a great scotch, great nose and first take and smooth finish, will have to keep this one around for quite awhile
 
Kyle
Kyle,
A very good scotch whisky with that peaty taste I love. It is just the right amount of peaty taste and has some nice flavors to go along with.
 
Dat
Dat,
Wow! True to its name, this bottle is peaty, but not overwhelming. Lovely tang of iodine and seaweed, with just perfect pinch of salt around your lips as you savor this magic elixir. Nice finish. Well done!!
 
Sean
Sean,
Me and the wife loved this! The taste was awesome! All the flavors just make it very smooth well blended. It was just all around a great drink. Can’t wait to get my hands on another bottle.
 
Zack
Zack,
dang, this is pretty fantastic I WOULD have picked up an extra bottle too bad I didn't order 2 like the others. very good flavor a little smoky but pretty great all around id recommend.
 
Dawson
Dawson,
Very good, but interesting blended wiskey with lots of smoke and peat, but good sweet notes that remind me of a speyside.
 
CYBUL&RONDOU
CYBUL&RONDOU,
It's good, but could have been a little smokier for my taste; a bit on sweet side too, but its smooth and very drinkable.
 
Thaddeus
Thaddeus,
Wonderful blend, glad I ordered 2
 
Kurtis
Kurtis,
Very smooth, Distinct flavor. I really enjoyed this.
 
Fernando

Very nice peat at the original price. Complex, full of flavor.
 
JPatrick
JPatrick,
Never received it!!
 
Charles
Charles,
I had my doubts about the hype and "limited" availability but this blend was exceptional... It was smooth all the way through and just the right amount of smoke and peat. Wish I could've scored some more bottles but I'm hoping they will continue with these limited releases.
 
Charles
Charles,
Holy cow. Smooth peaty goodness.
 
Kyle
Kyle,
This stuff tastes like battery acid. You’re better off picking up a bottle of Jameson for half the price.
 
Troy
Troy,
A bit outside what I normally drink but refreshing to change it up. Delivers as promised and that first sip really takes your breath away.
 
Emily
Emily,
Super smoky. Exactly as described.
 
Chase
Chase,
GREAT ! Smooth Smokey ! With a slightly sweet finish
 
Rebecca
Rebecca,
Delicious. As smooth as it is smoky, which means a lot of both. Tastes excellent neat, but blooms nicely with a small amount of water.
 
demoia
demoia,
Absolutely love the smokiness
 
Zane
Zane,
Absolutely delicious.
 
Nicholas
Nicholas,
A bit more "smoke" than "peat" than I had hoped for, but still a good whisky. Less complex than something like Lagavulin (which is my favorite). I've only had a single serving (neat), so I'm hoping this will continue to grow on me.
 
Justyn
Justyn,
This bottle is far from anything peat. It is smooth with several sweet notes. But if you’re looking for peat buy some Laphroaig.
 
Tyson
Tyson,
I enjoy this blend, not as peat/smoky as I thought it was going to be. It has a very smooth taste overall, easy to drink. I had the first half of glass neat, 2nd half with a small ice cube. The water really brought out the sweeter flavor notes, with enough smoky trail to sit and enjoy each sip.
 
Jacob
Jacob,
Seems a little more flavorful than batch 01 and just as smooth. Great purchase again!
 
Laramie
Laramie,
I'm a big fan of peat and smoke with a hint of sweet. This really fits what I've been missing.
 
Christopher
Christopher,
Tasted great going down, minimal burn, heavy malt but wasn't overpowering
 
Anthony
Anthony,
Excellent
 
Robert
Robert,
Love the Smokey flavor!
 
Sean
Sean,
It’s a one of a kind taste! The Smokey taste just drives it home ! No matter what you choose to blend it with it does so smoothly.
 
Justin
Justin,
Smokey, smooth and complex! A strong and somewhat sweet aroma with a long finish that mellows to floral tones, wow!
 
Matthew
Matthew,
Earthy smoky and a pleasure to drink
 
Timothy
Timothy,
It’s a strong peat but a bit on the lighter side. Strong scent and a good aftertaste that stays.
 
Will
Will,
Very nice
 
Bryan
Bryan,
Great peat!
 
Vicky
Vicky,
Most excellent. Just the right amount of peat for those who love peat.
