About this Chapter 7 Whisky
Peated Single Malt from the Highlands. This one is called Peallach. It's the name given to Ledaig distillate to protect the trade mark but it's no secret to connoisseurs. This Peallach is from a single bourbon hogshead, which delivers the peated character the best. Ledaig Distillery is located in Tobermory village, on the Island of Mull and dates back to 1798. Malt Whisky production in the distillery is split half and half, between the Tobermory and Ledaig single malts. Each malt reflects the inspiring Island of Mull. From the bright and colourful Tobermory with vibrant fruit, spice and a subtle salty note, reflective of harbour waters. To the more robust, peated Ledaig with sweet smoke and earthy notes.
