Nose Lots of fruit on the nose - think caramelised peach, Valencia orange peel and apple butter. Moves on to vanilla ice cream and Mars bars, with a touch of dandelion and charred oak emerging after a couple minutes.
Palate The middle bit of Crunchie bars, spicy ginger and fragrant oak up fornt, with sweeter notes coming through in the shape of brown sugar and golden syrup. The fruit from the nose returns, though with juicier touches of plum and pear.
Finish Cinnamon, milk chocolate and a fascinating hint of coconut straight from the shell.
Overall Keeping the classic grain whisky sweetness in check with rich oak notes, this Loch Lomond is a gorgeous dram indeed.
