- Description
- Ledaig 12 Year Old from Tobermory distillery on the Isle of Mull presents a rare sherry-matured expression of this coastal peated whisky. The combination of heavily peated spirit and rich oloroso cask influence creates a powerful, multi-layered dram—smoke and brine meet dried stone fruit and dark toffee on the palate. The texture is full and warming, with the peat smoke lingering long into the finish. This is a statement whisky for those who want Islay-style intensity with the added complexity of sherry influence.
