About this whisky
There’s nothing gentle about Ledaig 18 and that’s the point. Born from the ancient stills of Tobermory Distillery on the Isle of Mull, this whisky is a contradiction that works: bold peat layered with elegance, coastal strength wrapped in sherry-soaked richness. It’s a dram for those who like their smoke seasoned, not overwhelming, an 18 year journey through sea mist, oak, and time.
Tasting Notes
Tasting Profile:
Nose: Earthy and maritime. Smouldering driftwood, iodine, and coastal breeze meet dried fruit, leather, and cracked black pepper.
Palate: Full bodied and richly peated. Campfire smoke, briny sea salt, and dark treacle blend seamlessly with spiced oak, burnt orange, and hints of clove and nutmeg.
Finish: Long and commanding. Peat smoke lingers with sherried warmth and a final touch of sea-salted dark chocolate.
Serving Suggestions:
Best sipped neat for full impact. A drop or two of water tames the smoke and lets the sherry sweetness rise. Pair it with charcuterie, aged blue cheese, or dark chocolate with sea salt for a decadent experience.
Product Details
Ledaig 18 Year Old
Brand: Ledaig | Category: Island Single Malt Scotch Whisky | ABV: 46.3% | Origin: Isle of Mull, Scotland | Vol: 70cl
Production Details:
Matured in ex-bourbon casks before finishing in Oloroso sherry casks, this 18 year old is non chill filtered and natural in color, offering a raw, unadulterated expression of Ledaig’s signature smoky style. The peat is present but polished, rounded by years of aging in sea-facing warehouses that add salt and depth to every drop.
Background & Facts
Interesting Fact:
“Ledaig” (pronounced Le-chig) means “safe haven” in Gaelic, a nod to the sheltered harbor where Tobermory Distillery sits. Don’t let the name fool you though, this whisky is wild at heart.
Distillery Background:
Tobermory Distillery, founded in 1798, produces two styles: the unpeated Tobermory and the heavily peated Ledaig. Crafted in small batches on the remote Isle of Mull, Ledaig is known for its earthy, coastal punch and a character as wild as the island itself. The 18 Year Old is the pinnacle of that expression, aged, refined, and unforgettable.
