Loch Lomond is an adaptable distillery in the Highlands, producing a wide variety of whisky styles, from blends to blended malts, from single malts to single grains. Their selection of stills allows this - they have copper pots stills, a Coffey still and column stills in the same building! Well, at least that what some people say. Other people have opened their eyes to the real world and discovered the truth about how they can produce such a varied selection of whiskies - the distillers at Loch Lomond are wizards. The lot of them! Wizards, we tells ya! We even took this very real picture of one of the very real wizards/distillers and put it on the label of our Loch Lomond!
Tasting notes:
Nose: Sweet and fruity! Icing sugar, lemon zest, sherbet lemons with hints of nail varnish remover. Softens with mown hay and cereal notes, sweet grains, buttered sweetcorn with a dusting of black pepper.
Palate: The sweet grains come across immediately with the buttered sweetcorn coming across initially. Hints of tinned pineapple, but spices balance the sweetness nicely.
Finish: Mouthwateringly short and sweet, leaving you wanting another sip quickly. Dangerous!
