- Description
- This 25-year-old peated Ledaig from Tobermory completed four years in a pair of Margaux red wine casks before bottling by Murray McDavid. Islay's oily peat melds with vinous fruit and oak from the wine casks, creating a layered profile not typical of the distillery's usual house style.
