The Ledaig Distillery, now known as Tobermory Distillery, is located on the Isle of Mull in the Inner Hebrides. The distillery was originally founded in 1798 by John Sinclair. Over the years, the distillery has experienced several closures and reopenings.

Notably, the distillery was taken over by Distillers Company Limited in 1916 and closed again in 1930. It reopened in the 1970s and was subsequently closed again before being acquired by Burn Stewart Distillers in 1993 and eventually by Distell in 2013.

Ledaig exclusively produces heavily peated single malt whisky, while unpeated whisky is produced under the name Tobermory. Among the most popular releases of Ledaig are the 10-year-old and the 18-year-old single malt. The 10-year-old Ledaig offers a robust flavor profile with notes of smoke, seaweed, and pepper, while the 18-year-old presents a more complex combination of sweet and floral aromas with a warm note of sea salt and smoke.

A special release is the Ledaig Rioja Cask Finish from the Sinclair series, which is finished in Rioja wine casks and thus acquires unique fruity and smoky notes.

The production methods at Ledaig are characterized by the use of water from local sources and maturation in former bourbon and sherry casks. The combination of traditional techniques and modern methods gives Ledaig whiskies their distinctive flavor.
