After watching this video, I wanted to get a bottle as I've enjoyed lesser Ledaigs in the past. Searched for it on line and the price varied from $120 to $200 here in the states. Then I spotted an online purveyer located in southern California who had 4 bottles and was asking $61 a bottle. I bought 3. They just arrived in their fancy wooden presentation boxes. Even a blind hog finds an acorn sometimes. 😉

Oh dear, all the secrets are out now 😀

A personal favourite of mine. Happy to see you revisit this one! 🥃

[@PaulAlabama]

Hey, waiting on your own re-review of Ledaig 18, with the batch 4

[@Wu.Tang.Financial]

The Ledaig 10 has been really great lately. Lots of that “twiggy” peat, with a rich graininess and a good sweetness to round it out. I might have to check out the 18 before it becomes unavailable or too outrageously priced

[@tweezerjam]

I’ve finally begun to impart the knowledge I’ve gained from ralfy onto my brother and friends. I watch at least one ralfy video a day, on average. You’re both entertaining and informative. Thanks dude! ✊🏼

[@Innovate22]

Thanks to Ralfy: Ledaig (Tobermorry Distillery) may become the next Springbank. For those of us who have learned from Ralfy over the years can remember a time when he evangelized about this tiny “Grand Cru” distillery in Cambeltown being the finest Scotland. He taught us about their integrity bottling & cask policy, their old-school (no-shortcuts) production methodology and how this distillery gives back more to their local community. Well malt-mates it seems like Ledaig (Tobermorry Distillery) with its consistently high scores (being the envy of Islay) could perhaps join Springbank as the next “Grand Cru” distillery in Scotland. Stock-up malt mates before prices 🚀🌙

[@PaulAlabama]

I’ve done just that today. After this video, I went to the store, and bought another 18. I have my first one opened for awhile, and been enjoying it a lot. Now, I hope it won’t be super tempting to crack open the new one right after I finish the one I had

[@b.benjamineriksson6030]

Very worrying indeed. Maybe we need to silence Ralfy somehow.

[@RABSTRAINS]

I have to say Tobermory Distillery is one of if not my favorites. They are small and their attention to crafting outstanding Scotch Whiskey is commendable! I hope they keep what they are doing and not change! Ledaig 10 year is outstanding and I May have to treat myself to an 18 year or 19 Year Ledaig! RALFY, I received your Book today from Amazon, looking forward to reading it! Peace from America in the state of Ohio!👍🥃✌️

[@whompbiscuits8930]

I would love to get my hands on a bottle of Tobermory. I live in a control state, and while they sell Ledaig (albeit a special order,) for some odd reason they don't sell Tobermory at all, special order or otherwise. Same distillery. Strange.

[@whompbiscuits8930]

I think I took a small baby step in my little journey recently, but it was a bit backward. Was eating a banana the other day, it was pretty ripe (not rotten), and when I peeled it and went to take a bite, and I picked up a quick scent of the bourbon I had been drinking the day or two before. Went to the bottle, read the back. And there it was, said there was a hint of banana. So apparently, somehow, I didn't pick up banana when I was drinking the bourbon, but I picked up some component of my bourbon when I was eating the banana. Weird.

[@geo5291]

Happens to me ALL the time. Eagle rare, innit? Lol.

[@Scozzie]

That’s how you know you’re hooked, when the world reminds you of whisky, not the other way around.

[@michaelgonzalez347]

Now you have to go back and have another bourbon and see of you can pick up the banana this time. You might since it's already in your head but that's a good way of picking up notes in a dram. You can do that with herbs as well

[@steeno1985]

Got a bottle of the 10 yo waiting to be opened but the 18 yo looks like another level. One to add to the list. the online description says its without artificial colouring but would be good to see it on the label!

[@VFJ-kk4mk]

If you like Ledaig, then you'll perhaps try the NAS Ledaig Rioja cask finish. I can really recommend this. Good value for the money, now about 50 € online.

[@steeno1985]

[@shawnbaxter1001]

Should have bought all the 10 yr old that was on the shelf last Christmas...it was great (as you also reviewed) and love to see this show up here in Montana!

[@johnw1597]

I'm nearly finished with my first bottle of this one. Needless to say I'll be replacing said bottle! Cheers Ralfy!

[@MEADVICE]

I once met an old man who would, on his birthday, treat himself to an old single malt, 18yr up to about 24yr old and he always drank a glass of water before pouring the dram. He said he liked to clense the pallet to enhance the taste. Just wondering ralphy, do you have any rituals when it comes to the older, more expensive whiskys. I seem to remember you saying something about charging the pallet with a cheaper whisky? Fantastic video really enjoyed this one, cheers

[@meowmewmeow315]

I had the pleasure of participating in a tasting at the Tobermory Distillery in early May (unfortunately they weren't doing tours yet). I got to try the Tobermory 10, Tobermory 12 Cask Strength, Tobermory 17 year with a Madeira finish, Ledaig 10, and Ledaig 18. All great whiskies! Our guide said none of their whiskies are chill filtered or contain artificial coloring, but I agree it would much more useful to have it on the bottle.

[@stewartflood8447]

A recent bottle of the 10 y/o didn't last very long here, being just so drinkable it was gone in just over a month. As for the 18 y/o I eaked out a bottle of batch 3 (came in the wood box) over a year gradually enjoying it more as time went on...initially on opening I mostly got a sort of burnt 1970's rubber sensation on the nose that put me in mind of those Soviet era gas masks seen in cold war era documentaries, I eventually learnt to love it though as it faded slightly over time.

[@jimmypaul9424]

Their web site says natural colour, yes it should say so on the label. Great review.

[@Valera_Scotland]

Just bought 2x Ledaig 10 and 2x Ledaig 18, simply based on trying one dram of Ledaig 10 ! I've been to the distillery too, which makes this even more special. I think I'm a new Tobermory fan boy! And thank you Ralfy! There are some interesting options on the distillery's website, which I may explore as the birthday / christmas money comes in :). For now, will keep that little stash hidden away, and get another 10 to drink !

[@nicktheflybradley]

Hi Ralfy, my wife and I returned from our 10 day Scottish holiday last Friday including 3 nights in Achiltibuie after overnights in Bothwell, Campbeltown, Tobermory and Kyle of Lochalsh. Bought a bottle of Kilkerron in Camden Heads in Campbeltown, 20cl bottle Glen Scotia in Oban, tasted Caol Ila in Achiltibuie and got 20cl bottle in Inverness and 20cl bottle of Edradour in Pitlochry, all lovely sippers! I did not see any Ledaig. Nick from York

[@holmas7]

This is one of my all time favourites. I absolutely love it

[@canal-do-guga-namura]

I was introduced to Ledaig when I got the 10... simply amazing and so unique. More recently I got the Rioja finished version and OMG, it just works. Tried the 18 at my inlaw's just the other weekend and it's a thing of beauty... had to order one today after digging an absolute steal of a deal (for Brazil standards which are rather pricey).

[@jtf2dan]

Great review and I will keep my eye out for this one in Canada, although I doubt if I will ever see it here. I started seriously hunting different bottles of whisky 6 years ago here in Ottawa. About 3 years ago, I saw a bottle of Ledaig 10 on the shelf and snatched it up, as I had never seen it during the previous 3 years before that. I tried it finally last summer and was floored by how good it was! I liked it better than many of the Islay bottles I have (but not all of them! lol), and the price point was much cheaper than the bottles from Islay. Needless to say I saw a few bottles of Ledaig 10 again a few months ago, first time seeing them in another 3 years, so even though I still have most of my first bottle, I grabbed 2 as I know I like it very much, and I dont know how long it will be before I see it again...if ever....or if it will be as good several years from now. its nice finding a bottle you like, especially when you dont see it every year! thanks for the heads up on the 18...now the hunt is on again!

[@natural1952]

The madness of the government choosing and selling wine and liquor, eh? Compared to the old free market at work (can you say "New York City"?). You have my sympathies, friend.

[@robfut9954]

Canada is a brutal place to find bottles. Between the taxes and restrictions it requires some outside the box thinking to source bottles 😉

[@gordont.8958]

[@ronanmcconnellable]

Bought a Leading 10 a couple of months ago on your recommendation Ralfy. Can't wait to open it!

[@Gr1ggs1]

Hi Ralfy, great review as always. I recently finished a bottle of a PX finished Ledaig from Douglas Laing which I very much enjoyed so I might look for the 18 as a replacement... If you are interested to know if a bottle contains artificial colour, I found it helpful to go to german webstores and look if it says so there. German Law takes those additions a bit more seriously as far as I know so they need to be declared. From what I could find it does not mention anything about E150 for this bottle but obviously we'll never know for sure...

[@FEWGEE1]

Their website says "non-chill filtered and natural colour"

[@patricklinkous]

A decade ago I found a 13yo Ledaig in a little liquor store in San Francisco more popular for tequila. Quite a bit of dust on the label and I could never find much online information, but that bottle tasted amazing. I was quite new to peated whisky, but it had just the right amount to indoctrinate me. I wish Ledaig was more available in the states. Fantastic whisky.

[@jakelockhart2308]

10:03 - one of my favourite Ralph’s moments. Took your advice when this was selling for £75 🙂

[@pc3776]

Wish I'd have done the same... I have a bottle i bought for about 70 pounds. Haven't bought another yet.

[@sidberns1373]

Excellent stuff good value even down here in Australia, gets better as the bottle goes down too which I find in the ten also, love that. 👏

[@andbe8351]

Thank you Ralfy for this review. Ledaig 18 is one of my favorites but if I want to buy it I have to buy it from abroad and that becomes expensive. But when I try the whisky it’s worth alll money.

[@TheLPUnknown]

Superb dram 🥃👍

[@willemkilian9563]

Thanks Ralfy. This was an interesting series and I'm glad it could close off positively with a quality malt moment. PS I like the Mackenzie box you have next to you and the bottle in the background, wink wink 😉

[@11oakdene]

I love this like I love the 10y/o, but they are very different beasts. The 10 has become my current go-to sipping whisky, whereas the 18 y/o (which is, word of warning, a bit of a marmite whisky) is a super-rich, digestif / dessert whisky.

[@stephenvanwijk9669]

Bought a bottle. But I drink more 12 to 16 years old. Got 18, 21, 33 years old whiskies, but they remain in the stash.

[@Frankenamplified]

Thank you Ralfy, enlightening as always, really enjoying the Ledaig 10, look forward to trying the 18 as circumstance may permit. Love the long development of the 10, pour, wait, 1st taste, 2mls water, more time - I end up sitting with one pour for an hour exploring the nose, and sipping quietly. Patience is underrated with fine whisky.

[@markbagworth3653]

I tried Ledaig 10 after your whisky of the year review. I absolutely love the stuff. I can get the 10 for around $90 AUD the 18 is around $200 😟

[@IainBruce83]

Definitely need to start using no added colouring or those who do mention it on the label. The UK Govt does state in their guidance, that if a food or drink has 2 or more ingredients (including Additives) they need to be listed.

[@robfut9954]

Where I am, nothing beats Tomatin 18 for the value. I love that nutty note that it has. It’s about $89 here, about $15 cheaper than the next cheapest 18 malt and $25-$75 cheaper than most the field.

[@jackjones3047]

Great review as always .No water ???? Ok, will try it without water and with water !

[@mamuka1977]

Not only scotch whiskey landscape changing but also bourbon or American whiskey landscapes changing too, some prices on some bottles are ridiculous they just not worth buying .I got my 18-year-old month ago looking forward trying it, bigger distilleries assume that people just going to buy their product regardless of quality because of a name and some what they are right, most of people will and they banking on it. At this point in my life I'm on discovery mode I want to have pure liquid I want to have something different not only in the scotch but also bourbon cognac armaniac and any other fine spirit. It is a journey to discover something new something refreshing and something different it might not suit every palette but that's the whole point, like they say try it you might like it. As always thank you for your knowledge

[@robfut9954]

I literally hardly buy bourbon anymore and I’m in the US. The price they ask for such low age statements turns me off. If I’m going to spend $75, I will take a 14-16 year scotch over an 8 year bourbon any day.

[@Deliquescentinsight]

When you say 'who listens to the online community' I think you are correct, there is a very arrogant and uneducated attitude amongst the marketing companies and advisors of these producers, they seem to have a contempt for their customers and belittle opinions offered, which is very strange when you think about it: this is a massively important source of marketing intelligence, they could learn so much about the people who drink their products if they would only wake up and acknowledge the people.

[@Nikolay_Nikolov]

I've had my eye on Ledaig 18 for quite some time but it is damn expensive in Bulgaria. I have to part with the equivalent of roughly 101 pounds by current exchange rates to buy a bottle. In fact almost anything from Distell is overpiced in Bulgaria. I love the 10 yo and based on the very flattering feedback I still I may get a bottle of Ledaig 18 anyway, but buying more than one bottle - highly unlikely :) I've also been eyeing a bottle of G&M Connoisseur's Choice Ledaig Vintage 2000, bottled in 2015, 46%, NCF, NC. ~55 pounds. Looks like a decent offer to me. Cheers!

Ralfy, thank you for the review, I'll keep this release in mind, even though it is very expensive in Moscow. Today I have the opportunity to purchase a bottle of Ledaig 10. The question is which release to take? - available 2013 and 2019. Which one do you recommend? - in the old Ledaig 10 review you gave it a lower rating than in the new one

Is that the same batch as reviewed on here maybe? Haven’t yet opened mine, but I surely will. Lovely style of review by the way. Instant sub from me. Cheers!

Great video Ralfy. Thank you for your expertise. I have one issue, i am in my 3rd year of whisky journey and i am still not into Peaty whiskies even though i have tried a lot of them. I don't dislike them but i just cannot have more than 1 dram of peaty whisky in a day. Can it be because I'm not a smoker. I actually hate cigarettes. I am crazy about Sherry and tropical fruit notes in whiskies.

Sure it’s quality, BUT Is it any better than the other peated 18s like Talisker, Caol Illa, Laphroaig etc? Seems like it’s more popular for its price.

[@robfut9954]

I see that pure malt lurking in the background. Future review or extras on that?

[@ivanthetolerable]

There are a number of very characterful malts that were once considered grocery store malts or blend fodder. Some of these malts were held back in that budget category because of a low proof presentation, and Tobermory/Ledaig do fit that description. But another thing hounded the reputation of Tobermory/Ledaig: a self-impressed yearly ratings book. These books are almost completely comprised of undated, out-of-date reviews. So a novice looks up Tobermory 10 & sees a mark of 67.5 at the top for the old 40% presentation and then the next entry a mark of 73.5 for a 46.3% release followed by one or more recent scores. None of these scores are dated, and unless the novice understands that what is available on the shelves is much newer than any of these reviews, they are immediately put off. The case of Ledaig 10, included in the Tobermory section of this ‘authoritative’ book, is even more off-putting. Here a more recent, but still undated & old review is listed, the same appraisal as the third review of Tobermory, and almost the same mark, but with more daunting verbiage: “cough sweet” (drop in the US), “slight hiccup on the technical front”. The novice then reads the review for the older, lower alcohol release, and then passes over Ledaig for years: mark of 63, “What the hell is going on? Butiric and peat in a ghoulish harmony on nose and pallet that is not for the squeamish.” This isn’t even a snarky NYT restaurant review. This is a Yelp stink bomb. In my case, I located a miniature bottle of logic 10, and found no objectionable flavors at all. By then, Ledaig was distributed by a different supplier, so I ended up having to go out of town to purchase it. One need only investigate the author’s fetish for over-appraising anemic Glenn Grant 18 to gain perspective on his ‘bible’.

[@gordont.8958]

[@JohnnyArtPavlou]

Don’t you think it’s just a matter of time before a peated whiskeys get hit with a carbon tax? Then you’ll have to offset your carbon footprint by buying carbon credits. Or bourbon credits.

[@timthewhiskynut477]

The amount of peat used by the industry is miniscule. And the other drying methods (oil burners, gas/electric heaters) all release carbon too, albeit less.
