Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Pale gold with straw highlights; light colour belies the intensity of peat character within
Nose
Punchy coastal celebration of funky peat and maritime air. Powerful wave of medicinal smoke, creosote, damp seaweed. Surprisingly bright citrus core — charred lemons, grapefruit, lime zest. Mint chocolate, wax polish, floral seaside. Island peat at its most characterful
Palate
Beautifully oily and grippy. Immediate hit of big peat and sweet salty popcorn. Wonderfully creamy texture — toffee, milk chocolate, apple compote. Maritime saltiness throughout. The peat is bold but never harsh. One of the best value peated whiskies in Scotch
Finish
Long finish. Smoke and sea salt persist. Creosote and maritime peat slowly fade to sweet malt. Clean and satisfying. Won Whisky Exchange Whisky of the Year 2023 recognition for the Ledaig range
