Spearhead

Supremely sippable single grain Scotch whisky here from Spearhead, produced at the Loch Lomond Distillery! There's some really rather interesting stuff going on with this one – it's a single grain made with 100% malted barley and given a rather long fermentation time, before being distilled in a Coffey still, and then matured in ex-bourbon barrels. Before bottling, it's given a six month finishing period in a combination of traditionally toasted and infrared toasted barrels. Well worth checking out, this one!

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose Stewed summer berries, runny caramel, citrus blossom.

Palate Still has plenty of sweet fruit notes to it, now with hints of red apple and pear, soon joined by lime zestiness, brown sugar, and cassia.

Finish Toasted marshmallow, a smidge of oak spice, honey.

Reviews for Spearhead
A great discovery!
This is single grain from Spearhead is a fantastic entry level whisky. It's smooth with a great taste and is perfect to sip neat, or with a splash of water. If you're into really harsh, smoky single malts then maybe it's not for you. But for people looking to get into whisky and want a friendly introduction I'd say this is perfect.

Disgusting. Nose: lively. Vanilla, apricot, nail polish remover. There is something artificial about it. Taste: whiskey flavor. In general. Spirit, bitterness, spice. Finish: quite short (thankfully). Bitter almond, marzipan spirit. Uhhh... Wrong.

I am still quite new to whiskies so my opinion is perhaps fairly amateur. But this is truly delicious and not too heavy or overwhelming! and great value compared to similar taste and mouth feel of whiskies twice the price.

I bought a bottle, I'd buy another, simple as that. I don't always!
I'm not a whisky expert, I like a good dram recreationally in small doses. Spearhead was a huge surprise and is honestly one of the easiest whiskies I've ever tasted. From nose to afterglow it's just, to me, exactly what a whisky should be. No TCP/Iodine nastiness, no eyewatering afterburn when drunk neat, just a really pleasant example of a well crafted spirit.

Versatile and delicious!
Bought this whisky for it's differential points compared to classic scotch - grain whisky distilled in coffey still and using infrared toasted casks! Very pleasant and smooth. makes great cocktails!

Not great, but an educational pour.
Coffey still produces poor mouthfeel. The flavor, which is nice, is also very light. Was sold a bill of goods on this, but comparing it to Deanston Virgin Oak (which is similar in many ways but NCF and pot stilled) has been very educational.

Bottled sunshine!
Highly recommend this for any whisky drinkers - whether you're new to the category or a seasoned sipper.
Those flavours of coconut, banana and honey are so delicious! They shine through perfectly in cocktails but also just nice to sip along side a beer - definitely my new favourite whisky!

Easy drinking approachable Scotch
An easy drinking whisky that’s got bags of sweetness (a few typical bourbon notes in there) and works well on its own or mixed in a cocktail. Big fan and would recommend buying!
