On their web-site, they call it whisky (also, the one I have is really a Peat Monster Reserve). Also, I've only been able to find out that the Peat Monster (regular) is 10-11 years Caol Ila and 12-17 years Ardmore, whereas this one is only specified as two Islay malts (one from Ascraig, most likely Caol Ila, and the other from the south, probably Laphroaig or Ardbeg), and Ardmore. Tried another from Compass Box that was ghastly – think it was Orangerie. Sure about that? On their web-site, they call it whisky (also, the one I have is really a Peat Monster Reserve).

The "whiskies" from Compass Box are though quite interesting, since he is trying to make them according to emotions...
