The uniqueness of our pot malt stills rest in the cylindrical necks of the spirit stills. Traditionally the necks of malt stills are open. The Loch Lomond stills include special distillation trays in the necks, allowing for greater contact with the cooling alcohol vapour. This makes the process more efficient. These stills can produce alcohol up to 90% ABV where normal stills deliver the alcohol at around 70% ABV. This style of still allows for different ‘flavour notes’ to be captured and emphasised through the range of alcohol strengths that can be captured and rejected. This is much more difficult to achieve through a conventional pot still.
The Loch Lomond Peated Single Grain Whisky presents a rich and engaging tasting experience. It opens with a nose full of clove, vanilla, and blackcurrant, offering a deep and aromatic start. The palate introduces a sweet, tangy peat character that is balanced with notes of green apple and lime citrus, providing a refreshing crispness. Additional layers of flavour come through with aniseed, contributing a spiced complexity that enriches the whisky's profile. The finish is clean and dry, characterized by a crispy peat smoke that lingers pleasantly. This single grain whisky, made from malted barley and matured in bourbon casks, showcases a smooth and nuanced composition, making it a distinctive choice for whisky enthusiasts.
