Smoke on the Island.
Tobermory distillery is situated on the Scottish island of Mull, in the village of Tobermory. The distillery, formerly known as Ledaig, is the only distillery on the island. It was founded in 1798 by John Sinclair, has changed hands several times and undergone a number of closure periods.
These days the brand name ‘Ledaig’ is used for all their lightly peated malt Whisky, whereas the unpeated Whisky is sold as Tobermory. While most of the distilleries in the Island region mature their Whiskies on the islands themselves, Ledaig matures them on the Mainland.
The Ledaig 10 YO is distilled from peat dried Barley and has the strength of around 30-40 PPM. It is aged for 10 years in Oak Wood casks. The medicinal peat smokiness can easily put this Whisky beside the famous peaty Islay Drams. A fresh and vivid drop with just the right amount of smokiness.

Scotch Whisky is almost never aged in new barrels. Bourbon and Tennessee Whiskey casks are usually used for maturation, while many times ageing process and flavour finishing is concluded in various wine casks, such as sherry or port.

Ratings & Reviews
JOSH,
tastes don't come together, smokey upfront, sweet after, nothing really impressive but the split is not pleasant for me. So far my least favorite islay
update: changed to 7, i love this dram now that i'm halfway through. spicy blast of smoky peat upfront and mellows into a honey sweet finish that all blends as you drink because the sweetness lasts on your tongue and blends into the next sip. i leave the previous review to journal my progression with this fine scotch.
Reese,
Excellent combination of salty, sweet, spicy, and smokey.
Joe,
Nose: Quite light and well-balanced. There is a very soft peat with a gentle smoke. Notes of barley and malt extract, with walnut and pine oil and a hint of iodine, dried fruit and nuts.
Palate: Medium-bodied and quite rich. There are notes of spice and smoke gathering above the charred oak. The peat is quiet and dry with a touch of black pepper and earth.
Finish: Medium-length and slightly smoky with spice.
Jeffrey,
I liked it but didn't love it. If I want something peaty, I want something peatier than this. It would be a great fit for someone looking for a smooth, balanced intro to peat and smoke. Someone else used the word creamy, and I have to agree with that mouthfeel/sensation. That aspect makes it unique, but not really what I like in a scotch. It is surprisingly mellow for a 10 year, reminiscent of something at least 12.
arne,
well balanced peaty/smoky flavor. smooth. something sharp early
