Top 5 Peated Whiskies Matured In Sherry Casks For Under £100 

Peat+Sherry is my absolute favourite. I have the first 4 on my shelf now unopened. Still searching for the benromach. Other notable mentions is the Glendronach peated

Zürich Airport had the Laphroaig PX reduced on sale for £67, had to grab a bottle

Great list, this is my favorite style. Bowmore 15 and 18 got me started on this approach. I need to try the Kilchoman.

Heavily peated Sherry bombs are definitely a joy to experience. My favorite homemade peated blend is Bunnahabian 12 60-70% & Ardbeg Uigeadail 30-40%. Put it in a sample bottle and let it sit at least two weeks to marry and enjoy. Even though it's mostly Bunna during the marrying time the Ardbeg takes charge and you get Ugi with the sherry kicked up a notch. A good thing to try in todays world with what we can get now. Cheers

As a sherry lover I'm started liking the mix of peat and sherry mix... So the video was after my own heart. Another mention is the Bowmore 15..a perfect balance of sherry and smoky

Excellent list of peated offerings matured in sherry casks MA. I am loving the Ugi. I gave Benromach 10 a crack and need to get my hands on the contrasts peat smoke release next.

Loving the peated content these days!!!

Nice video. I’d love to find a bottle of the Benromach but have never seen it where I live in the republic of Texas😋. I can still recall my first taste of the Ugi at least 8 years ago in Miami - sublime!

Great video!

I love a good “whisky sandwich”! There’s just something about combining peat and sherry that makes whisky beautiful.

I think you´re far from being a noob! Love the Uigeadail and the Loch Gorm. Thought you´d go for the Laphroaig Lore instead of the PX, but it is what it is 😂. I really need to try the Lagavulin and Benromach! Great vid!

Great list!

Agreed! I like Laphroaig PX, Because I like PX. Also caol ila fron signatory Is very nice. Sherry peated whisky at cask strength is just top.

Big fan of all of these. I'd say Ledaig 18 and Ballechin SFTC 12 Oloroso deserve a shout out, too!

I will definitely try them ❤

Nice list, hard to argue with any of your picks. For those on a smaller budget I can recommend Glasgow 1770 peated.

Massive fan of peat and sherry together. I’ve had the first three of these with the oogy being my first experience of them. Recently tried Loch Gorm and i got the Laphroaig when travelling earlier this month at £75 for a litre, which I felt was very reasonable. I will have to see about grabbing the other two. Ardbeg Dark cove is still currently my fave, but certainly not under £100!

Benromach rules!

Nice list. Thank you for the good recomandation. If you have the chance, try the michel couvreur candid. I am verry curious what you think of it.

Hello, I had/have all of these Whiskys and i love(d) them all. But... Instead of the Laphroaig PX i prefer an IB Expression of it called Williamson (Which is technicaly a teaspooned Laphi) matured or at least finished in a Sherry Cask. Most Time its CS and NCF and NonColoured. Much more quality for same Money . Second Issue: Instead of Benromach Contrasts Peat Smoke i would choose there Cask Strength Version. Its matured in First Fill Sherry and has more Sherry Influence and Power. My Opinion. Thanks for your entertaining Video about these Bottles. Greets from Germany 😎🤘

I might’ve added the Arran Machrie Moor Fingal’s Cut Sherry Cask which is fantastic and comes in just over £60. It’s 54.4% ABV, I think it’s NAS (to be confirmed), NCF with no added colour. It’s a great whisky!

Sanaig is also a decent shout. Although I haven't tried the Loch Gorm.

This is my favorite flavor of scotch.

Can you do a video of old malts? From whiskyantique for example

My personal fav is Kilkerran 12 but it's becoming quite hard to find lately

Have you tried the new Glenturret 10 peat smoked?

Where do you buy your peated sherry whiskies...some online site seem to charge an arm and a leg for most

Lagavulin removed the distillation date from the 2022 distillers edition, and that can only mean the whisky going into it is a becoming a lot younger.

I love peat+sherry and for my friend the palate always seems to be problematic for some odd reason. I agree about the old Uige, but happily the new stuff is still real good.

You prefer the Laphroaig PX cask to the 10yo Sherry?

Kilchoman Sanaig and Loch Gorm, Ardbeg Uigeadail, Benromach Contrasts:Peat come to mind.

Lovely list, really enjoy the ardbeg and Kilchoman as well! What are your thoughts on the Sanaig? I think it's a great bang for a buck. And (a bit off topic) do you know why lagavulin bottles their 16 yo and d.e. with 43% abv, is it because of the Asian market? I really like the 16 yo but I think this doesn't do it justice, I would much rather prefer 48% abv like the 8 yo has.

Should it be a red flag if a sherry matured whisky is still coloured, what does it say about the barrels? I know they are very expensive.

Particularly if the Laphroaig is finished with PX sherry. That stuff is dark. Adding more color to an already dark natural finish and then bottling in near opaque bottles seems utterly pointless overkill. But then, I tend to view Laphroaig as 'overkill', but that's just the sherried whisky drinker in me...

I'm a Highland Park Einar fan, but my dram is not available to me in the US. I'm looking for an alternative that gives me a "lightly peated" whisky, and, since I'm a hearty sherry cask fan, if that 'lightly peated' whisky were aged in sherry casks, I'd be happy. So, the low end Highland Park product available here don't deliver on what I'd found with the 'Einar'. I'm trying to obtain Benromach 10 or 15, hoping that one, or both, might deliver on the "lightly peated" flavor. I have Lagavulin 16 and Talisker Storm on hand and consider both "too much" for my tastes.

A shame no Highland Park included in the list! Very good and very affordable!

Oh, man! That PX is odd man out in that list 😢

Not going anywhere M.A - #MaltActivistCardCarryingFan

Laphroaig sherry oak absolutely destroys the PX triple matured.

😂😂. If you’re a whisky noob what the heck am I?

Whisky isn't a poor mans sport. Dont apologise for saying 100 is affordable. To most whisky drinkers, that's acceptable for something good.

Don't agree that the Loch Gorm deserves a place in your list. Very Overpriced and underwhelming.

YOU SAID TOO MUCH! SAID TOO LONG.! Your 5 choices is OK
