As you probably surmised from the name, to create this limited edition Ledaig master blender Julieann Fernandez selected three caks types for maturation: bourbon rioja, and tawny Port. She married these three components together and bottled the whole thing at 53.8% ABV.
The whisky marks a further step in the collaboration with Scottish wildlife cameraman, filmmaker and presenter Gordon Buchanan, who is a Mull native, and Mull and Iona Community Trust. His photography was the basis for the whisky's label. A donation from the production of Ledaig Triple Wood will go towards the Mull and Iona Community Trust to support the island's biodiversity and enhance the local community.
Through BBQ smoke there’s praline, candied pear, and cinnamon. Throughout it has a big, sweet rich quality, like Werther's Originals dipped in caramel sauce.
Red wine red fruit sweetness, soda bread, marine salinity, herbal liquor, biltong, dark chocolate, salted nuts, and some earthiness.
Ash and cherry linger with a little toffee, some minerally-rock pool qualities, and peppery spice.

I can only describe it as a burst of flavour. The first time i tasted i was absolutely amazed, peppery on the tougue, however the flavour was incredible and would highly recommend. The price point is a bit of a downer but if youre looking for something that is flavorful and fairly harsh, i seriously recommend.
