Ledaig 10 Year Old is the benchmark bottling for peated whisky from Tobermory on the Isle of Mull. It’s one of these names that have made significant progress in recent years, in my opinion.

Ledaig 10 yo (46,3%, OB +/- 2018)

Nose: fairly light and floral at first, with lemony notes and a slight yoghurt-like sourness to it. Band-aids, iodine and a little rubber. Fish oils and walnuts. Nice sooty notes and smoked ham underneath. Mouth: fresh, still on zesty lemons with more smoke than I expected and a light honey sweetness. Salty coastal notes. Nice oily notes....
