Product Description
We're big fans of sherried Ledaig at TWE, and when the chance came around to bottle one for The Whisky Show 2015, we couldn't say no. Rich and smoky, with lots of liquorice, blackcurrant and earthy spice.

Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes by Billy A
Nose
Smoky liquorice and stormy sea shores – ozone, damp rocks and muddy seaside meadows. Sweet leathery notes sit behind, slightly smoky with a little plasticky – like an almost-new car seat on a hot day – with some comparatively gentle medicinal notes.
Palate
Liquorice and blackcurrant sweets, black bread with cherry jam, sweet leather, smoked ham, mulchy peat and layers of spice: nutmeg, clove and spicy cinnamon. Rich sweetness provides a backbone: ginger biscuits, light fruit cake and milk chocolate.
Finish
An initial burst of smoke softens to berry fruit, ginger cake and lingering sweetness.
Comment
Less of a bruiser on the nose than some releases, but still no shrinking violet. The palate is richer and more developed, with dark fruit and less fire than its bottling strength might suggest.
