Loch Lomond 1996-2018 | 21 Year Old | Cadenhead's Small Batch

Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 
Bottled by: Cadenhead's 70cl / 51.5%

A cask strength 21-year-old Loch Lomond 1996 from a pair of bourbon hogshead casks bottled by Wm Cadenhead in 2018 for their Cadenhead's Small Batch range.

Of course, Loch Lomond distillery is so stylistically diverse that saying a whisky is distilled by Loch Lomond isn't really clear enough. This particular Cadenhead's Loch Lomond is believed to be the distillery's lightly peated Inchmurrin malt whisky. In any event, it's a 1996 Loch Lomond 21-year-old and the two bourbon hogsheads yielded a total of 450 bottles at 51.5%, so it's likely going to be delicious stuff.
