  • Have you ever tried a peated whisky that doesn't come from Islay? - The place that's world renown for making smoky whisky.
    Today I taste and review Tobermory's peated expression called Ledaig and see if this smoky 10 year old can hold it's own against the giants of Islay.

    Such a wonderful ten minutes with you Wade and this absolutely fantastic whisky. After Ralfy recommendation couple years ago i fell in love in this one and became one of very few always replaced. It was real pleasure hearing and watching you seeing enjoyment on your face. Cheers 👍😁🥂🙋🏻‍♂️

    If you like this one you should try the Ledaig Rioja cask finish, even if you don't like wine cask finishes this one is special, it adds a little fruity spice to it. I can't define what it is but I do like it.🥃

    this is a great whisky but when at the distillery earlier in the year I bought the 18 yo, which is even better and a good price.

    Awesome Wade, love it when you get this excited with a whisky 😃 Ledaig is doing everything right these days and there will be more to come as apparently they are increasing their peated distillations because they have enough aged stock of Tobermory but not so much of Ledaig :)
    I always find the peat in Ledaig different to those of Islay whiskies but Matt from @whiskyonthewestcoast told me that the peated malt comes from Port Ellen, just like it does to all the other Islay distilleries. Maybe it's the climate of Mull which gives the taste the difference, who knows. Cheers my friend, great video as always!
