A single grain from the very adaptable Loch Lomond distillery, known for producing a variety of different whiskies, from single malts to single grains to blends. Although this is produced entirely from malted barley, it's distilled in a column still, meaning it's classified as a single grain (had it been distilled in a pot still, it would be classified as a single malt)! A very light whisky here, perfect as an aperitif.
Plenty of sweet, fruity grain character here. Citrus peels, icing sugar, a little bit of grassiness.
Pineapple starts to develop on the palate, with a touch or two of oak spice keeping it from becoming overly sweet.
Continued fruity freshness.
Wholly different to most other Single Grains on the market. Unlike the usual unaged bottlings this is a proper whisky, not just a spirit that meets the legal requirements. And it's nothing like the well aged bottlings from well known indies. This is almost in a class of its own. Fruity, quite smooth, plenty of character and a malty note you just don't normally get in a grain whisky. Perhaps not to everyone's taste but certainly not a dram that fits with the common perception of grain whisky.
