The Loch Lomond 12 Year Old is a distinguished Highland single malt whisky, meticulously crafted at the renowned Loch Lomond Distillery. This exquisite expression has been aged for 12 years in a distinctive combination of three types of casks: bourbon, refill, and re-charred. The result is a whisky with a delicate balance of flavors and a captivating fruity character. Upon opening, you are greeted with the enticing aromas of green apple, lemon, and golden cereal. On the palate, it reveals complex layers of lemon meringue, orchard fruits, and vanilla, leading to a medium finish with a gentle smoky taste and a hint of peat. This whisky, bottled at 46% ABV in 2021, presents an amazingly light yet intricate profile, with notes of pear, malt, porridge, peach, apricot, and a touch of honey. A subtle trace of ginger and freshly sawn pine wood adds depth to the experience. The medium-long finish remains fruity and sweet, gradually becoming dry and spicy with fresh ginger and a pinch of green pepper. Perfect as a thoughtful gift or as an introduction to the range of single malts produced by Loch Lomond, this 200ml bottle is a testament to the distillery's commitment to quality and innovation. Its unique aging process and well-balanced flavor profile make it a must-try for any whisky enthusiast.
