- Description
- Ledaig's 2010 distillate matured for ten years in standard oak before a pivotal year in virgin oak casks added distinctive character to Tobermory's peated offering. The virgin wood introduces bright, charred citrus alongside the baseline peat smoke—a marriage that lifts the typical Islay profile into fresher territory. At 55.8% ABV, the intensity is pronounced without overwhelming the interplay between peat and cask spice. Limited to 1,017 bottles, this suits peat enthusiasts seeking something beyond traditional cask finishes.
