“This is a lovely whisky. At 46.3% proof, you need to treat it with respect. It is smoky, peaty and extremely smooth. I like mine on its own or occasionally with a teardrop of water. This is a very enjoyable whisky and I've already recommended to friends and have already bought it again.”

Description
The Tobermory Distillery has kicked off its Sinclair Series of bottlings with a brilliantly flavoursome Ledaig single malt, which has enjoyed a finishing period in Rioja wine casks! The series is named after the distillery's founder, John Sinclair, and this particular edition packs plenty of peaty notes alongside the ripe red fruit sweetness imparted by the Rioja casks. A sublime evening dram, this.
