Character Goatson
A serious, powerful, delightfully sea-faring dram of authentic character and charm.

A. D. Rattray has been an independent bottler of Whisky since 1868. Since those early times they have distributed dozens of classic malt Whisky brands and created a few of their own, sourced from the smaller boutique distilleries of Scotland. They are not only an independent distributor and bottler, they are also historians and keepers of the Whisky faith via their “Whisky Experience” facility in South Ayrshire.

These days their house brands include the uniquely re-born and revitalized Stronachie, Cask Islay, Bank Note, and their famous Cask Collection series of specially sourced individual barrels of Scotland’s most famous Single Malts.

Tobermory is the last remaining distillery on the Isle of Mull, north of Islay. They produce their namesake Tobermory Single Malt — with a light, almost Highland style — and their peated Ledaig Single Malt. Ledaig 9 Year Old Single Malt is a special bottling of this sought-after, peaty Single Malt from A.D. Rattray’s Cask Collection. The barley is dried directly over smoldering peat, imparting the smoky-briny flavor the way has been for hundreds of years. It is aged nine full years in ex-Bourbon casks and bottled at a blistering 59.7% ABV without artificial colors or other nastiness.

It’s a serious, powerful, delightfully sea-faring dram of authentic character and charm.

Character Dogson
Is Scotch always Scottish? What do you think? Yes. The answer is yes.
Scotch Whisky is seldom aged in new barrels. Bourbon and Tennessee Whiskey casks are usually used for maturation. In addition to that, Whisky is often matured or finished in various wine casks such as Sherry or Port.
Whisky or Whiskey? The spelling differs geographically. In Scotland, Japan, and some other parts of the world, distilleries usually spell it Whisky; in Ireland and the USA, they spell it Whiskey.
Categories of Scotch Whisky: Single malt, Blended malt (formerly called Vatted malt), blended, single grain and blended grain Scotch.
Single Malt Scotch Whisky is made in Scotland using a pot still distillation process at a single distillery, with malted barley as the only grain ingredient. It must be matured in oak casks in Scotland for at least three years (most Single Malts are matured longer, though).
90% of all Scotch Whisky released in the market is a blend. That’s a hell of a lot.
