Loch Lomond The Open Special Edition Distiller's Cut / 46%/ 0.7l
- Loch Lomond whisky has been the official spirit of the Open since 2018 (Loch Lomond has taken over the sponsorship from Glenmorangie).
Product description
Since 2018, the official drink of the famous golf tournament The Open is Loch Lomond whisky (previously it was Glenmorangie).
The 2019 special edition, The Distiller's Cut, is the work of Michael Henry, Loch Lomond Group's master blender. The distillates were sourced from three types of white American oak barrels (we assume first-fill, second-fill and reconditioned barrels), and the presentation, with its green bottle and label and golf-themed carton, clearly indicates the distillery's partnership with Scotland's national sport.
Nose: fruity, peaches, pears, ripe apples, burnt toast, vanilla pudding, milk fudge, brown sugar and a distant hint of smoke.
Palate: sweet and fruity, vanilla, caramel, milk fudge, honey, peaches, oranges, maple syrup and a hint of oak tannins.
Finish: medium long, with notes of apples, pears, peaches, vanilla, honey and a trace of peat smoke.
