The Loch Lomond Steam & Fire Heavily Charred American Oak is a distinguished limited edition whisky from the renowned Loch Lomond distillery in the Scottish Highlands. Crafted with precision and dedication, this whisky undergoes a maturation process of ten months in heavily charred American oak casks from the distillery’s own cooperage. These unique casks, known for their long, straight necks, contribute to the whisky's rich and complex flavor profile. The distillery utilizes both peat-smoked and unpeated malted barley, resulting in a harmonious blend of flavors.
On the nose, one is greeted with sweet and fruity notes of candied apple, pear, and vanilla pudding, complemented by hints of toffee and white chocolate. The palate reveals a creamy texture, with flavors evolving into more intense and earthy notes of nutmeg, cinnamon, and charred oak, with a whisper of peat smoke. The finish is long-lasting, offering delightful hints of cocoa, baking spices, and green fruits. Bottled at 46% ABV, this whisky is a tribute to Loch Lomond’s engineering capabilities and their mastery in distillation and aging processes.
