Scotland, Eastern Highlands. Distillery operational. Owner: Loch Lomond Group
Loch Lomond is unique in many respects. Sitting at the mouth of the famous loch from which it takes its name, this distillery looks more like a distillation facility than a distillery. Straddling the Highlands and Lowlands, it carries this dual identity to its very core, housing on its site both a grain production unit and a malt production unit. In addition to the independence and flexibility this brings for the production of blends, it also means Loch Lomond is able to produce a plethora of malts, ranging from very peaty to very fruity profiles, which it can, at its leisure, distil in either Lomond still or pot stills. Its three best-known malts are Old Rosdhu, Inchmurrin and Loch Lomond, the subjects of 1966 and 1967 vintage bottlings. Die-hard Tintin fans will also have noted that a certain Captain Haddock enjoyed a Loch Lomond whisky long before the distillery was even built (1965-1966).

Inchmurrin is one of the many styles of single malt produced by the Loch Lomond distillery. Founded in 1966 to meet the growing demand of Scottish blenders, the distillery is equipped with a Lomond still capable of producing at least eight styles of spirit. Originally reserved for the blended scotch industry, it was only much later that the first single malt bottlings appeared.

Inchmurrin 18 Year Old is a lightly peated single malt produced at the Loch Lomond distillery.
