Intro from Master of Malt
This 12 year old Ledaig release was finished in amarone casks - a rich bittersweet Italian wine - for one year, creating a smoky single malt which mixes sweet honey and vanilla custard notes with a saline freshness, peppery woodsmoke, and a tannic bite. It was bottled at 55.8% ABV with no chill-filtering. 2753 bottles were filled and it is only available direct from Tobermory distillery or from us.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose Winter fire smoke, roasted nuts, creamy crème brulee, and a subtle hint of cinnamon.
Palate Vanilla custard and honey balanced with subtle tannins, a distinct saline note and spicy smoke.
Finish Light smoky finish with a hint of clove.
Whisky Resource Note
This bottle was recently announced as an exclusive by Master of Malt, however, it has been available direct from Tobermory for sometime.
The Master of Malt description references 55.8% ABV as the strength, this is incorrect, however they do have the correct strength listed elsewhere on the product listing.
