- Description
- Ledaig, Tobermory's peated alter ego, reaches 12 years of maturity in this Na Bràithrean independent bottling, delivering the distillery's island peat character fully developed. A single bourbon hogshead from May 2009 maturation through June 2021 provides a focused expression where oak influence supports rather than dominates the peat-driven profile. The 158-bottle release emphasizes scarcity, making this a collector's piece for those seeking mature island peat outside mainstream bottlings. Perfect for peated whisky enthusiasts looking beyond well-known Islay names.
