This radical blend from indie bottler Living Souls came about as the result of what its team describes as a happy accident! A very small amount of three-year-old grain was blended with an 18-year-old heavily peated single malt from a well-known island distillery (ok everyone knows it's Ledaig 18). The malt initially aged for 16 years in refill bourbon barrels and hogsheads, then finished for two years in sherry casks. The breakdown of this blend? 99% 18-year-old peated malt and 1% three-year-old grain, hence the name 99&1.
