Loch Lomond Distillery Edition 4

DISTILLERY EDITION FOUR 
SUPERCHARGED FLORAL & TROPICAL FRUITS

400 Bottles  • Natural Colour • Non Chill Filtered.

Our Distillery Editions celebrate our distillery’s innovation and whisky-making ability. Our fourth edition is a 7 year old single grain whisky which is made using 100% malted barley, fermented for 96 hours using a specially selected yeast, and is distilled in our continuous “Coffey” still.

 During distillation, the spirit is taken off the still at 80% abv, a relatively low strength for grain whisky, retaining more flavour. This creates a spirit that is both full-bodied and fruit-forward with added depth & complexity.​ 

 

400 BOTTLES PRODUCEDThe Distillery Edition Series is a concept developed and crafted by our Master Distiller, Michael Henry. This series celebrates our distillery’s commitment to innovation and flavour exploration.

The fourth edition in our series is a 7-year-old single grain whisky which is made using 100% malted barley, fermented for 96 hours using a specially selected yeast, and is distilled in our continuous “Coffey” still.

During distillation, the spirit is taken off the still at 80% abv, a relatively low strength for grain whisky, retaining more flavour. This creates a heavier spirit that is both full-bodied and fruit-forward with added depth & complexity. Matured for 7 years in a combination of first and second fill bourbon barrels - elevating the floral aromas and developing notes of caramel sweetness, deep fruit notes of peach and mango, followed by warming oak spice.

Bottled at cask strength of 58.9%, with no added colour and non chill filtered.
