DECADENT DRAMS – LOCH LOMOND 15 YEAR OLD – Scotch Whisky News

 

This is a 15 year old single malt distilled at Loch Lomond Distillery in 2009. We made it by mashing together a refill hogshead of 2009 Loch Lomond single malt, with a 1st fill hogshead of 2009 Inchmurrin single malt. Both those casks were dumped together into an IBC, left to marry and then returned to the same two casks for a couple of months to continue marrying.

We re-combined them before bottling and reducing the mix by a few degrees to 53% in order to help bring everything together and emphasise the fruitiness of the combined malts. This was designed to try and achieve a bottling that had the full-bodied oiliness of Loch Lomond and the exotic fruitiness of Inchmurrin. We are really happy with the results, it’s a total fruit bomb and, we think,

a good value one at that too!
