Loch Lomond Page 1 of 2

Loch Lomond is one of the most significant Scottish whisky distilleries. It is located in the Highland region, in the town of Alexandria, right by Loch Lomond, after which it is named. It is one of the few in Scotland that can produce such distinctly different whiskies within a single distillery. From light and fruity to more robust and subtly smoky.

History of Loch Lomond Brand

The Loch Lomond distillery was founded in the 1960s by Littlemill Distillery Company Ltd., which continued the tradition of the oldest licensed distillery in Scotland – Littlemill. Part of the ownership later belonged to the American company Barton Brands. The brand has built a reputation as one of the most innovative whisky producers.

Specific Distillation Equipment

Loch Lomond is unique in that it uses multiple types of stills, including special straight neck stills. This type of still has an extended neck that allows for very precise control over the distillation process. As a result, the distillery can create distillates with different structures and intensities, and thus a wide range of resulting flavors. This flexibility makes Loch Lomond one of the most versatile producers of Scottish whisky.

What to Taste from Loch Lomond?

The annual production of Loch Lomond is approximately 10 million liters of grain whisky and around 2.5 million liters of single malt whisky.

We recommend trying their core single malt whisky Loch Lomond Original, and for style comparison, the smooth Loch Lomond Single Grain and the smoky Loch Lomond Peated Floral and Smoky.
