Ledaig 2007-2015, 8yo, 52.3% – Beacon Spirits

Posted on 22 October 2020 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

It’s with shame that I start this review. I got this sample from Bert Dexters, of Beacon Spirits, years ago and have completely missed it in reviewing. My sincere apologies, Bert. A young Ledaig as we have seen quite regularly … Continue reading →

BTC #14: Ledaig 11, 2005-2017, 58.6% – Signatory

Posted on 20 December 2017 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

After trying the tremendous Ledaig 42 from 1972 last year, I thought there might be something to early seventies Ledaig. I never got around to trying many of those and when someone posted a share of this one on Facebook, … Continue reading →
