Glen Moray 21-Year Triple Cask and Ledaig Castaway Reveal Bold New Whiskies

Glen Moray and Tobermory Distillery Unveil New Expressions

Two notable releases have emerged from the U.S. TTB database highlighting whisky innovation from Scotland’s Glen Moray and Tobermory Distilleries. The Glen Moray 21 Years Old Old Triple Cask is a small batch single malt crafted with triple maturation, while the Tobermory Distillery introduces Ledaig Castaway, a boldly peated whisky aged in unusual casks. Both represent distinctive profiles appealing to collectors and whisky enthusiasts alike.

Maturation & Flavor Profile

Glen Moray 21 Years Old Old Triple Cask showcases a 21-year maturation in bourbon, port, and Madeira casks. This triple cask aging creates a complex whisky reputed to blend notes of apple pie and cinnamon with orange zest, oak, and hazelnut. Non-chill filtered and bottled at 46.3% ABV, it aims for a richly layered taste experience.

Conversely, Ledaig Castaway from Tobermory, located on the Isle of Mull, is cask-strength whisky at a potent 61.1% ABV. Its maturation in rum and tequila casks lends an exotic influence to this heavily smoky and peaty expression. Maritime peat characterizes its profile, combined with aromas of caramelised banana, grilled pineapple, and bright citrus. The palate features herbal agave, sea spray, black pepper, and smoky spice, culminating in a long, smouldering finish marked by demerara sweetness and a twist of lime.
