Loch Lomond The Open Special Edition 2026 with 2 glasses

Loch Lomond The Open Special Edition 2026 was created as a tribute to one of the most prestigious golf tournaments in the world – The Open. The 2026 edition celebrates the 154th championship at Royal Birkdale and continues the long-standing partnership between Loch Lomond Whiskies and The Open.

This limited whisky is crafted by Master Blender Michael Henry, who created a distinctive single malt that combines the typical fruity character of Loch Lomond with a richer wine finish.

The whisky was made exclusively from distillate from the unique Straight Neck stills of the Loch Lomond distillery. It first matured in American oak casks, which impart fruitiness, honeyed sweetness, and a subtle smoky character. It then underwent a 6-month finish in selected Argentine Malbec casks. This final phase adds dark berry fruit, red fruit, and a gentle spiciness.

The nose reveals dark berries, red currants, and citrus peel, complemented by vanilla, honey, and a delicate malty note. The palate is rich and fruity – blackberries and raspberries intertwine with peach syrup, fresh apple, toffee, and spice. A gentle smoky trace runs throughout the profile.

The finish is medium-length, with lingering sweetness of berry fruit, oak spice, and a light smoky warmth.

Whisky is bottled at 46% alcohol, has a natural color, and is not cold-filtered.

This version comes in a collectible gift packaging with two limited glasses – one featuring The Open branding and the other Loch Lomond Distillery. It makes a beautiful gift not only for whisky lovers but also for fans of golf and The Open tournament.
