Ledaig 13 Year Old Douglas Laing Private Collection Single Cask

About

This Ledaig 13 Years Old from the Douglas Laing Private Collection is a rare discovery hand-selected from the family's personal cask reserves. Only 284 bottles were ever hand-filled and personally signed by Cara Laing herself. Bottled at natural cask strength (48.6% ABV) without added colour or chill-filtration, this expression is presented exactly as the distillery intended. On the nose, smouldering peat smoke layers beautifully with crisp green apple and vanilla cream. The palate reveals honeyed malt, baked orchard fruit, and a gentle coastal salinity that speaks to Ledaig's maritime character. Ledaig's signature use of peat-smoked barley delivers a distinctive smoky profile, enriched by the complexity of the sherry cask influence. The finish is long and evolving, with tobacco notes and deepening smoke. A compelling single cask for collectors seeking a limited, hand-selected expression with genuine provenance and character.
