- Description
- Loch Lomond's Inchmurrin label showcases their lightly peated Highland style, distilled in 1996 and aged 22 years in a bourbon barrel before finishing its maturation. The restrained peat smoke complements orchard fruit and honey notes characteristic of the distillery, with bourbon oak contributing vanilla and light spice undertones. The texture is smooth and creeping, with a drying finish that balances sweetness and smoke. This bottling suits those seeking peated Scotch with finesse rather than intensity, or exploring Loch Lomond's diverse range.
