Description
Loch Lomond 8 Year Old Single Malt – Madeira Wood Finish
ABV: 46%
Crafted in the Highlands of Scotland, Loch Lomond 8 Year Old Madeira Wood Finish is a single malt whisky that brings together tradition and innovation in perfect harmony. Initially matured in American oak casks, this expression is then finished in premium Madeira wine casks, infusing the spirit with a rich complexity of flavour and a subtle sweetness that sets it apart.
This unique finishing process lends the whisky a beautifully balanced profile, showcasing Loch Lomond’s signature smoothness layered with exotic fruit, gentle spice, and a honeyed richness that lingers on the palate. Bottled at 46% ABV, non-chill filtered, and naturally coloured, it reflects the distillery’s commitment to authenticity and flavour integrity.
