Loch Lomond 50 Year Old Bottled at 42.6% abv

Limited to just 100 individually numbered bottles, may we present Loch Lomond 50 Year Old. This spectacularly presented Highland single malt was distilled in 1973 in the distillery’s distinctive straight neck pot stills, and was gently maturing in Loch Lomond’s breathtaking surroundings for nearly four decades in American oak casks, before an additional maturation in ex-bourbon casks in 2011. Six years later, the liquid was re-casked into Oloroso sherry casks to enhance the complexity of this extraordinary whisky, before being bottled at 42.6% abv. Free from chill filtration, and at natural colour.

Aromas of zesty orange, refreshing mint, sweet fruit, grilled peach and nutmeg fill the nose. The palate brings beautifully complex flavours of melted brown sugar, juicy apricot, tangy orange marmalade and dark fruits lead to touches of cherry, creamy vanilla fudge and warming cinnamon spice, before a long-lasting finish of watermelon, kiwi, green tea and wood spice.
