Member Ratings and Notes
Mike
 

N: Fruit, paint, salty jerky, spent matches.  VEry complex.  Enjoyable to nose for some time.

 

P: More paint, fruit, brown honey mustard (needed some prompting for that but it is there).

 

F: Medium, tasty, has a great complexity to savor. Goes back and forth from sweet to spicy mustard. Like other Ledaigs but fuller body and more flavor.

 
Andy
 
Generically whatever. 
Chris
 
Spicy peat on the nose.  A tasty sweet syrup in which the peat takes a back seat to strong citrus flavors, mainly oranges.  Ledaig seems to be very hit or miss, this one is a hit.   (P.S.  Nice notes Andy, very detailed.) 
Rob
 
Sharp. Substantial peat. Smooth. Not too salty. 
Fuji
 
Fruit bomb with bitter finish
