Single Malt
A Ledaig (peated single malt from Tobermory) matured in a single Sherry butt and bottled for Maison du Whisky's Artist collection 5th releases.
Firm, powerful. The nose is especially mineral (slate, manganese) and equally medicinal (camphor) and peaty. Elegant and sophisticated peat reveals notes of candied apricot, smoke and charred wood. Later, spices (ginger, nutmeg) appear, giving it increased power.
Lively, dynamic. The attack must first be tamed to combat its sharpness. Peat and apricot continue their successful partnership. The mid-palate is initially herbaceous (cut hay, sage), before becoming exotic (persimmon, guava). Gaining in intensity, the peat becomes increasingly oily, pairing itself with saline, smoky notes. It lingers with notes of citrus fruit (orange, tangerine).
Long, concentrated. Fresh fruit emerges: melon. Both fresh and firm, its juice spreads over the taste buds. The peat has become chalky, almost vanillalike (oak). Its velvety tannins recall the slate notes of the nose. The retro-nasal olfaction presents a beautiful fruit liqueur enhanced by notes of gingerbread and rosemary. The empty glass is peaty, earthy and marine (seaweed, smoked fish).
