Description:
Here’s a limited edition Ledaig from Tobermory distillery that is rich yet vibrant with beautiful lashing of that industrial peat smoke enthusiasts of the brand (including us) can’t get enough of. The whisky was laid down in 2012 for 9 youthful years in Bordeaux red wine casks before been drawn and bottled at a cask strength of 56.8% ABV.
The Ledaig range proves that Islay isn’t the only place that can offer up deliciously peated whisky with the Tobermory distillers completely across their brief when it comes to peated malts. This is one delicious dram that will stay with you long after the final pour.
About Tobermory distillery:
The Tobermory Distillery is located on the Isle of Mull, a Hebridean island in western Scotland, north of the isle of Islay. The distillery was founded in 1823 in a former brewery, which had been established in 1797 by John Sinclair. It’s the only distillery on the Isle of Mull and one of the oldest commercial distilleries in Scotland. The distillery producers two different, but alluring, single malts: the fruity, unpeated Tobermory and the more robust and smokier Ledaig (pronounced letch-ick’ – meaning ‘safe haven’ in Gaelic), which was the original name of the distillery.
