In addition, the grains used to make Ledaig are malted and mashed with water sourced from Mary's Well, which contributes even stronger notes of smoke and sweet brine to the whisky's flavor profile.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nAfter the grains used to make the whisky are milled and mashed, they are fermented for nearly four days in washbacks made of Oregon Pine. Each wash is then twice distilled, first through one of Tobermory's copper-pot wash stills, and again through one of Tobermory's copper-pot spirit stills.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFollowing distillation, Ledaig 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is matured for a decade in used bourbon casks that are laid to rest in ancient vaults on the Isle of Mull. It has a bright, golden color with an aroma of sweet smoke, mint chocolate and seaweed. The notes of spicy smoke, vanilla, and malt are robust and complex, and lead to a spicy and vibrant finish.

The name Tobermory is derived from the ancient Gaelic word meaning \"Mary's Well,\" and refers to a nearby well on the Isle of Mull that was dedicated to the Virgin Mary centuries ago by Irish monks who lived on the island. In 1798 — just ten years after fishermen began using the port of Tobermory as a resting place — John Sinclair founded Tobermory Brewery and Distillery.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nToday, Tobermory Distillery is the last remaining distillery on the Isle of Mull, and one of the oldest commercial distilleries in Scotland. It produces two distinctive styles of whisky: Tobermory Single Malt Scotch Whisky, an unpeated single malt whisky that reflects the heritage and culture of the Isle of Mull, and Ledaig Single Malt Scotch Whisky, a heavily peated single malt whisky that reflects the distillery's location in the Inner Hebrides archipelago.                                        \u003cdiv class=\"brand-link\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/spirits\/?brand_dropdown=2695\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eExplore all Ledaig bottles \u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"caskers-spirit-type-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Scotch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all!
