Description
What gives Ledaig 18 Years Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky its intensely complex character the Distillery asks? First, peat-dried malted barley is married with aromatic water, drawn from Tobermory Distilleries private water source on the rugged Isle of Mull . Matured in superior oak wood casks, and finished in Spanish sherry wood casks the result is a wonderfully peated single malt, robust and vibrant with a spicy smokiness, floral seaside aromas and hints of liquorice and cloves.
