Loch Lomond 25 Year Old 1996 - Mission Gold (Murray McDavid)
Loch Lomond
Tasting Notes
This remarkable 25-year-old Loch Lomond single grain whisky unveils a captivating journey through an array of indulgent flavors. Distilled in 1996, it spent over two decades maturing in bourbon hogsheads before a three-year sojourn in Diamond rum casks from Guyana imparted a distinctive tropical twist. The nose is an alluring fusion of creamy orange curd, succulent liquorice, and sun-kissed tinned fruits. On the palate, sweet popcorn mingles with juicy pineapple and woody spice, creating a harmonious interplay of sweetness and complexity. The finish lingers with candied ginger, melted brown sugar, and zesty citrus notes, leaving a lasting impression of opulence. Limited to just 391 bottles, this intriguing expression from Murray McDavid's Mission Gold series is a true testament to the art of cask maturation and a must-try for discerning whisky connoisseurs.
