Why Gifted Pour recommends it
For the golfer who seems to have everything, this is a bottle with a story worth telling. Loch Lomond created it to celebrate the 152nd Open Championship at Royal Troon, distilling it in 2000 and maturing it for 24 years, first in American oak hogsheads and barrels and then in Manzanilla sherry butts from Jerez. That patience shows in the glass. Honey, vanilla fudge and pineapple lead on the nose with a wisp of sooty smoke, then a juicy palate of red berries, cherries and baked apple pie turns creamy with toffee, marzipan and salted caramel. Bottled non-chill filtered at 47.1% ABV, it rewards slow sipping, neat or with a drop of water. We see it as a natural gift for a milestone birthday, a retirement after a long career, or a Father's Day for the dad who never misses the Open. It also makes a memorable centerpiece for a tasting evening with aged cheddar and salted caramel chocolates.
Pairs well with
- Aged cheddar and blue cheese — The salty, savory bite of the cheese plays against the whisky's toffee, marzipan and salted caramel sweetness.
- Salted caramel chocolates — They echo the creamy caramel on the palate while the cinnamon and nutmeg spice keeps each bite lively.
- Father's Day for golfers — Its Open Championship story and layered red berry, honey and soft smoke character make it a celebratory pour for a dad who loves the game.
