Disappointing

Ok, but that's about it. No where near as good as ledaig 10. Definitely not worth the money.

Warming. Worth buying

Pepper and peat and apples

Wouldn't buy again

A nice enough whisky, but not mind-blowing.

Very sweet ‘n peppery smokiness

As a smokey peat lover I like it. Smoke, pepper and peat is very noticeable through the sweetness. Because it is so sweet I think this is a very nice introduction for starters getting into peated Islay Scotch. 4 stars because I paid less than €35 for a bottle.

It's not bad just different

This 1's smoky, peaty, chocolate & peppery as you'd expect but underneath its quite light with alot of sweetnes. It feels thin which gives me the impression the spirit is younger than the Ledaig 10, meh maybe it's just me bn more used to the 46%. Leaving it in the glass for an hr to breath doesn't seem to be as worth it as it is for the Lediag 10. It's not bad just different, I prefer the Ledaig 10. It's slightly peatier & smokier & overall has a more balanced finish imo. Just goes to show me that price should never be ahead of taste wen choosing my next Scotch.
