Ledaig, no age statement. 42%

Very pale in colour.

Nose- not much. A little peat, some cereal, young spirit. Not particularly promising, at first sniff.
Mouth- getting better... Clean, sweet, some smoke and grass.
Finish- better still. Warm, long. Herbs, ginger and honey.

And it gets better again as you get through the glass- ginger, smoke and warm honey building and harmonising with every sip. An unexpectedly pleasant— and I should add, cost effective— surprise.
