Loch Lomond 12-year-old is a sourced whiskey that some puts a label on to make it seem like it is a distillery. I am skipping the usual history lesson on the expression and just getting to the point.
It is a recommendation from Disco Stu for taste and price and I think he got this one right on the nose! It is a decent tasting and has a nice balance for the price. It reminds me a of a cross between Johnnie Walker and Bruichladdich. It has a medium body taste with some fruit and sweetness on it.
Aged 12 years and bottled at 46% abv and has a madeira sherry finish. Overall, a nice taste and well valued. Give it a try. Works well as a summer scotch on the rocks or a warm Fall weather drink served neat.
Priced around $40-50 and worth the money for the taste profile.
If you like it, drink it! – Christopher
