Rich Flavours Born from Smoke and Sea
This dram is a celebration of the Isle of Mull’s wild landscape. Expect vibrant notes of burning heather and pine cones on the palate. There’s a rich undercurrent of smoked meat and grape skins that balance beautifully with hints of melon. The nose opens with smoked fudge, eucalyptus oil, and a medicinal hint of carbolic soap. As you sip, layers unfold. The finish is long and evolving, revealing floral undertones and a bright touch of lime pastilles.
Crafted with Island Influence
Tobermory Distillery brings the essence of Mull into every drop of Ledaig. The coastal air, sea spray, and native flora lend a subtle maritime edge. This briny character complements the peat smoke, adding depth and freshness to the dram. It’s whisky that speaks of its surroundings — raw, beautiful, and unforgettable.
The Power of Duality
Ledaig represents the bold, peated side of Tobermory’s dual expressions. Where Tobermory is smooth and fruity, Ledaig is fierce and smoky. Together, they reflect the dual nature of the island: calm yet wild, soft yet strong. This limited release perfectly captures that contrast.
Uncompromised Quality
True to its artisan roots, Tobermory bottles this whisky without chill filtration and with no added colour. This preserves the full body, natural texture, and authentic flavour profile. Every sip offers a pure expression of craftsmanship and heritage.
