Mosstowie was a Speyside single malt whisky produced on Lomond stills at Miltonduff distillery from 1964 to 1981. Lomond stills are a combination of aspects of pot and column distillation. They have adjustable 'rectifying' plates in the neck that allow the distiller to adjust the rate and amount of reflux, thereby supposedly enabling them to produce different spirits from the same still. 

This is the theory, though many have posited that Lomond stills don't actually offer as much variety as they were supposed to, and relatively few are still in use in Scotland. Mosstowie was discontinued as a spirit in 1981 due to a lack of demand from the blenders, but the handful of surviving bottlings show it was a fine whisky. 

The majority of bottlings of Mosstowie that exist all hail from the early to mid-seventies. The character is a very soft fruity and floral one, full of honeysuckle, fresh apples, pears, nectar, apricots, yoghurt, mead and fresh oatmeal. There doesn't seem to be too much interest in Lomond spirits these days which is a shame when they were as good as Mosstowie. Anyway, now is inevitably the time to buy them before they vanish away forever.
