Murray McDavid

Leapfrog 13 Years Old Benchmark

ABV: 54.4% 70 cL

This single malt was distilled in 2011 at an unnamed distillery on the picturesque Isle of Islay (Leapfrog is a bit of a hint). It was aged in three 1st-fill bourbon barrels for the entire 13 years of maturation, resulting in notes of lemon drops, chilli, and oily peat. 

It was bottled at natural cask strength, without chill-filtration or artificial colouring by Murray McDavid for their Benchmark Collection. 

Nose

Citrus oils, light smoke and salted butter.

Palate

Vibrant embers, lemon drops and chilli.

Finish

Oily peat, sweet char and pineapple.
