Tasting Notes
Ledaig 12 Year Old 2008 Amarone Cask Finish is a unique single malt whisky that offers a captivating fusion of flavors. The initial aroma evokes a cozy winter fire, with notes of roasted nuts, creamy crème brulee, and a subtle hint of cinnamon tantalizing the senses. On the palate, the whisky unveils a delightful harmony of vanilla custard and honey, beautifully balanced with subtle tannins from the Amarone cask finish, a distinct saline note that adds a refreshing twist, and a spicy smokiness that lingers. The finish is light and smoky, with a hint of clove adding an intriguing depth. This 12-year-old expression was finished for one year in Amarone casks, a rich and bittersweet Italian wine, creating a complex and exceptional whisky that blends sweet, smoky, and tannic elements seamlessly. Bottled at a robust 55.8% ABV and without chill-filtering, this limited edition of 2753 bottles is a true gem for whisky enthusiasts.
