ABOUT THE BOTTLE
A festive whisky to pair with the cold winter and holiday spirit, selected by our very own Wei De from The Single Cask bar Singapore! This release perfectly showcases the peated side of these two holiday themed ‘sprits’. This unique Ledaig displays a multitude of coastal elements alongside warming peat, delicious Christmas cake, sweet Demerara sugar and supple oak notes. Adding some sweet warm peat to those cold evenings!
For us, one of the best aspects of a good single malt whisky is its ability to bring people together. So when we created our bottles we wanted to design something that felt like a decanter - meant to be passed around a group of friends, new and old, as they enjoy sharing a dram together.
Our bottles have a good weight to them, making them feel substantial and giving them the presence a good whisky deserves. We've offset the label, so that the whisky is centre stage; it shows the natural colour of the liquid clearly and proudly.
The label clearly and transparently shows you all the key information, including: the nature of the liquid (for example, single malt scotch) where it was distilled; how old it is; and how strong it is. All our liquids are natural colour and non chill filtered.
Our bottles come in two sizes: 700ml, which is our standard for our main releases; and for some of our expressions, 100ml minis.
Packaging: All our bottles are shipped in a specialist anti-shock 'air tubes'. These create a sleeve of air around the bottle to keep it safe and protected while in the post. The air tubes are then places in discreet, plain, cardboard outer boxes.
