A satisfying, subtly peated single malt Scotch whisky from Loch Lomond. The distillery is renowned for being able to produce a multitude of whisky styles, including single malt (like the one you see before your eyes right now), single grain and blends. Versatile and talented, those Loch Lomond distillers...
Caramel, oily walnut, a touch of dusty oak smokiness.
Digestive biscuits and ginger snaps. Subtle vegetal notes develop later on.
Diced almond, coffee bean, toasted malt.

I usually drink big OTT Islay malts but they can get a bit much sometimes. This is easy to drink without being too smooth, still has a bit of smokiness and bite to it. A proper single malt Scotch for when Irish is too smooth and Islay malts feel a bit too difficult. I really like this.
Purchased for £18.99. I wouldn't have bought this particular Malt were it not a close price match to some well-recognised blended whiskies. Bought therefore as a bit of a "punt" I found this Malt to be light bodied with hints of sweetness, smokiness, spice with caramel notes. It is a pleasant, un-aged Malt however the lingering intensities of spice and it's medicinal taste could be subdued with a splash of water to make it palatable for some.
A lot of personality. I buy it a thousand times more!
I am not a pro at this stuff. I have had a few whiskeys and I just judge on what I drink. I'd have to say that this is good whiskey for $25. It's very smooth in my opinion. Flavor is fine. Not too strong. Not too bland. I prefer this too some blends for sure. Better than Jamo, maybe on par with like a JW black. I recently had Ardbeg 10 year and to me it's awful. Just way too smokey. This whiskey is fine for an average drinker like me.
A satisfying, smooth, flavorful single malt scotch-my favorite for over a year now. I sampled several single malts over the years, & narrowed it down to The Glen Livet. I'd purchase it only @ intermittent dates, due to its relatively high cost for a guy such as myself that's retired. I was then introduced to Loch Lomond-initially skeptical @ its substantially lower price-approximately 1/2 of The G.L. From the outset, for the very 1st time, I encountered a single that was just as good, & by the time I'd opened my second bottle, I had to confess that I actually liked it better; a bit smoother & the tinge of peat put it over the top for me. The cost was not a factor @ all in liking it better, but it's truly a fringe benefit.!!
