Ledaig 11, 2009-2020, 54.4% – The Whisky Kingdom
Yet another bottling for the German ‘Wu Dram Clan’. I guess Wu Dram is striving to be forever. This time it’s a Ledaig, or peated Tobermory if you will, from a bourbon hogshead. I was a bit apprehensive about it … Continue reading

BTC #14: Ledaig 11, 2005-2017, 58.6% – Signatory
Yes! Another zero pointer! I’m getting back to my usual self, apparently. Also, my Peatometer is broken. Or I’m having more of a cold than I though. Or my sample was weird. I don’t really think I can blame things … Continue reading

Ledaig 1999-2015, 46% – Gordon & MacPhail’s Connoisseurs Choice
Since I’m trying to ‘pay my dues’ to the people who sent me samples over the last year or so, I just grabbed the one closest to me when I checked my cupboard. It just happened to be this Ledaig. … Continue reading

Ledaig 18, 46.3%
I’ve often ranted about how I don’t like Ledaig. Of course, there was that little 42 year old that was just out of this earth and so ridiculously good looking at that might be considered Malt Porn. It’s one insane … Continue reading

Ledaig 2004-2014, 51.6% – Liquid Art (Pink Salmon label)
Right. A pink salmon, with insects for fins or so. Weird. Anyway, to get this out of the way: I don’t like Ledaig. It displays flavors that I don’t find interesting. It has a weird smokiness that is strangely clean, … Continue reading
