This single cask bottling of an 18-year-old Loch Lomond single malt was produced by the independent bottler North Star Spirits Ltd. of Glasgow in Cask Series 026. The whisky was distilled in 2007, matured in an ex-Oloroso sherry barrel, and bottled in 2025 with 168 individually numbered bottles.
Loch Lomond is a distillery in Alexandria in the south of Loch Lomond, a loch of the same name in Scotland. It was founded in 1964, closed between 1984 and 1987 and is now owned by the Hillhouse Capital Group, an investment company from China. In 1993, a Coffey still was added for continuous grain whisky production, making it the only company in Scotland that produces both malt and grain whisky in one distillery and can therefore offer a single blend.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
