Ledaig 2005 Cask Strength

Country: Scotland

Region: Highlands

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Berry Bros. & Rudd

ABV: 62.7%

Score: 87 Points

Interesting for a young malt. The nose is cinnamon and caramel candy, very aromatic with nutty undertones and hints of varnish and paint thinner. The taste is fiery and young with peppery notes and sweet undertones, a hint of orange peel, and water adds a sweet taste of honey. The finish is sweet and slightly tart.
