Coming Soon - 2011 Lady of the Glen Loch Lomond (Inchmurrin) Single Cask #711 13 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
The Madeira finish has had an influence on the nose, though not enough to eclipse the bright fruit character of the distillate. Intense biscuity malt climaxes with a zing, while a nectarine and feijoa-like fruitiness rises through the later stages - strikingly similar to the rebound on some hors d'Age cognacs. A fascinating, odd-ball malt in a league of its own. 200 bottles at 55.7% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.
Notes from the bottlers... Madeira Finish. A light bodied distillate produced at high strength in Loch Lomond's straight neck pot stills. Aged in a hogshead and finished in a first fill ex-Madeira cask for layers of caramel, walnut and citrus. This distillery is famous for its ability to consistently produce many different styles of spirit including grain spirit too. Inchmurrin is one of their lighter styles distilled in straight neck still with a higher cut point producing a light fruity style. This combined with well over a year finish in a Madeira cask has produced a lovely toffee and caramel character. Tasting revealed - banoffee, tinned peaches and cake mix.
