- Description
- Loch Lomond's straight-neck pot stills produce an unusually fruity and zesty spirit, and this Inchmurrin 6 Year Old was matured entirely in Sicilian Marsala casks for added depth. Expect vibrant stone fruit, honey, and dried citrus notes balanced by the wine cask's warm spice and oak tannins. Light to medium bodied with a clean, dry finish. A distinctive, food-friendly dram for those seeking something beyond typical Highland profiles.
