- Description
- Ledaig—Tobermory's heavily peated alter ego—brings authentic Islay-style pungency to this 12-year-old single malt from a May 2009 distillation. Matured in a single bourbon cask until 2021, the whisky balances smoke and maritime character with the vanilla notes of ex-bourbon wood. This independent bottling suits peat enthusiasts looking beyond Islay's core distilleries.
