Tobermory Bottler Distillery Bottling Bottling serie Limited Release - Batch No. 02 Bottled 20.11.2015 Stated Age 18 years old Casktype Spanish Sherry Wood Finish Strength 46.3 % Vol. Size 700 ml 750 ml Bottle code P037166 L5 xx:xx 15324 Barcode 5029704218056 Added on 17 apr 2020 3:06 pm

This award-winning whisky was first matured for 16 years in ex-bourbon casks before being finished for 2 years in the finest sherry casks, giving the whisky delicious sweet and fruity notes. There is also a peppery spice that comes from the oak wood and ties in well with the cinnamon. It bolsters the fruits flavours and gives them a lovely depth. Ledaig has a lot in common with Islay, namely the use of peated malt, but it cuts a much different figure than your typical Islay peat bombs. Primarily that is because this 18 year old malt is finished with sherry casks, a practice that is not unknown in Islay but which isn’t all that common. We’re so excited to have Ledaig 18 recognised by industry experts once again. I’m so proud of each and every member of the Tobermory team for continuously creating such wonderful and distinctive expressions that reflect our beautiful island home.”Powerful rich, sherried, herbal smoky flavours, orange peel, coffee, a touch of sea salt, tobacco and white pepper. Intense and robust, it’s a rich whisky with sweet smoke and earthy notes. Created with expertise and a great deal of care, to have won such a fantastic accolade is a true reflection of the hard work that goes into producing each expression in the Tobermory portfolio.

Finished in sherry casks, this is a rich and fruity expression with hints of smoke and plenty of character. The palate is rich and full of fruit. There are dates, raisins and oranges, all with a nice chewy texture to them.

Yup, way above the regular price, but I was asked to buy something interesting for a family gathering. This is bottled at 46.3% and is unchillfiltered, said to be released in 2016. If Whiskybase is correct on this bottling date, then local drinkers really have a lot of room to improve when it comes to knowing what to drink. They are missing out.

Brendan McCarron, Master Distiller at Tobermory Distillery said: “Ledaig is one of our more heavily peated, smoky whiskies that has a really distinctive flavour. Named after an area of land in which our distillery was founded in the 1790s, it’s one of Tobermory Distillery’s cult whiskies and an expression we’re very proud of. Ledaig 18 is true example of our Hebridean artistry and transports drinkers on a journey to Mull, showcasing the very best of the island that inspires every drop that comes from the distillery. Opened this with a friend and we could barely hold a conversation as each time one of us took a sip we had to stop to say how good it was.

Tobermory distillery is located on the Isle of Mull, off the west coast of mainland Scotland, the second largest of a group of islands that make up the Inner HebridesThe distillery produces 3 spirits, unpeated Tobermory Whisky, peated and smoky Ledaig and Botanical gins. Ledaig, named after the distillery location in Tobermory bay, pronounced (Led-chig), means 'afe haven’ in Gaelic.A very one-faced whisky. It’s surprising that a peated whisky this old still has a fiery peat and smoke flavor. The peat of other 18-year-old peated whiskeys I’ve had have mellowed down to nuttier notes.
