Loch Lomond Single Grain Highland Scotch Whisky
Loch Lomond Single Grain Highland Scotch Whisky
We tried this Loch Lomond a few years ago and loved it for its unusual lightness. Since then it has been a favourite on many of our tastings. It is made with 100% malted barley but because it is column distilled it is a single grain.

    I love the 10. Thanks to you i just bought a 10 from the distillery. I had no idea there was still some available. I've had the new 12 and I don't like it very much. It's too sweet. They should have stuck to the same cask maturation as the 10. The extra finishing ruins it for me.

    It's great to see your doggies participating in the reviews. Years ago, I had a Loch Lomond single grain independent bottle that was 22 years old, and it was a lemon sherbet bomb. I used quite a bit of it to make my own blended Scotch's. Each blend was just 250ml, but some of them were just amazing. Phil and Deepa did a blind challenge livestream with them. You were on Roy's livestream with them in May of 2022. Whisky Mystery UA-cam channels Donner Pass Whiskey blind challenge is the name if you have almost an hour to waste 😂. Cheers ladies

    The closest thing I've had to a single grain whisky is corn whisky, which has a specific legal meaning in the United States - and not all corn whisky is 100% corn. But Abasolo, El Whisky de México, and Balcones Baby Blue are both all corn, and I like them both. All the Scottish whisky I've had is either a blend of barley whisky and grain whisky, or single malt (I swear by Laphroaig 10 🙂). 6:44 I've not found any whisky that I like better with water. Tastes differ, of course, but I don't even try water anymore - I just prefer my whisky straight. 🙂🥃

    My wife and I popped in back in October, we had a bottle of edradour Ballechin from you. We must be hardened peat hounds because we didn’t think it was heavily peated, although not a bad dram. It was nice to meet you in the shop, and thought Callander was a lovely little town. Hope the new shop goes well for you, all the best from Shane and Carol on the Isle of Wight.

    @andrewbutler7681 10 днів тому

    Sorry to be pedantic, but the straight-necked stills at Loch Lomond are NOT Lomond stills, which were invented about 9 years before Loch Lomond Distillery existed and were installed at Inverleven/Dumbarton, Glenburgie and Miltonduff. One of the Inverleven ones is now at Bruichladdich making Botanist Gin under the name Ugly Betty. There is also one (with the neck plates removed) at Scapa, but there is some disagreement as to where it originated (I think it was one of the Glenburgie ones).

    I was always put off by Loch Lomond. Bought a bottle of the 12 a few years back and it was poor. To be fair though I didn’t stick with it so it may have got better. I had this special run of an 11 cask strength… which was really good but it went and ran out too quickly. Which I blame Loch Lomond for…
