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

BTC Sample 18: Tobermory 20, 1995-2015, 54.7%, Rest & Be Thankful

Ledaig 1974-1992, 43%
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
