The Loch Lomond Spearhead is a distinctive single grain whisky from the renowned Loch Lomond distillery, made exclusively with 100% malted barley and distilled using a Coffey column still. This exceptional whisky is the fruit of a special collaboration with a Kentucky cooperage, which provides unique casks selected for their precise toast level. These American oak casks are meticulously toasted internally, enhancing the whisky's flavor profile. Matured in ex-bourbon barrels and finished for six months in a blend of traditional toasted oak barrels and infrared toasted barrels, Spearhead offers a truly unique taste experience. It greets you with aromas of violets, brambles, blackcurrant, vanilla, caramel, and dark chocolate, while on the palate, it reveals notes of red apples, lime, vanilla fudge, and brown sugar that linger in the finish. A trailblazer in the world of Scottish whisky, Spearhead challenges conventions and is perfect both for cocktails and to be enjoyed neat. Produced at the Loch Lomond Distillery, the whisky undergoes an extended fermentation period of 92 hours before distillation. The carefully distilled liquid is then matured in ex-bourbon barrels and finished in a unique combination of infrared toasted and fire toasted virgin American oak barrels. This meticulous process results in a light, fruity, and sweet whisky, making it an ideal choice for mixing. Spearhead honors the foundations of traditional whisky-making but views them as just the beginning. By choosing a new path, Spearhead has crafted a whisky that is not only original and unique but also brimming with flavor.
