Суммаризация отзывов

Фруктовый, слегка дымный профиль в стиле Loch Lomond с промышленно-резиновым оттенком и заметной дубовой горчинкой; опытные ревьюеры оценивают выше и удивлены качеством за свою цену, рядовые чаще упрекают за горечь и затхлость.
развернуть подробно
В аромате доминируют светлые и тёмные фрукты — яблоки, груши, сливы, абрикосы, персики — вместе с ванилью, мёдом, карамелью и марципаном, поверх которых лежат промышленно-маслянистые, резиновые и слегка затхлые «подвальные» ноты и лёгкий фенольный дымок; таков узнаваемый почерк винокурни. Вкус плотный и маслянистый, с ощутимой пряностью (корица, мускатный орех, перец), цитрусовой цедрой и возвращающейся фруктовостью, но многие отмечают сдвиг к дубовой горечи с тонами эспрессо, кофейной гущи и танинов. Послевкусие чаще среднее по длине, сухое, пряно-дубовое, с табаком, чайным листом, грецким орехом и налётом дымного обугленного бочонка, и именно оно вызывает больше всего нареканий — у части дегустаторов оно короткое и разочаровывает. Опытные ревьюеры настроены заметно теплее: их оценки держатся в диапазоне 83–91, звучат слова об удивлении, сложности и отличном соотношении цены и качества, а один прямо признаётся, что недооценивал винокурню, пока не попробовал этот образец. Рядовые оценки разбросаны шире (71–89): нижний край дают за тяжёлый дуб, затхлость, травянистые и «странные» послевкусия, которые ряду дегустаторов просто не по вкусу. При этом основной массив мнений сходится около 84–87 и на общем профиле — расхождение касается не столько описания напитка, сколько того, воспринимается ли его грубоватая, промышленная неотёсанность как достоинство или как недостаток.

Not Sure which batch Was offered to me but i was pleasantly surprised! Nice fruits on Apples and peaches upfront, getting a slightly sweet sherry on the palate and a Real good aftertaste with a hint of smoke. Really good, maybe even springbanky?

compared this on next to a loch lomond cadenhead 21y 1997-2018 52,5%. This one rocked the show against the cadenhead version. i truly underestimated loch lomond until i tried this. hadnt had something that special in my glas for a long time.

A nice round single malt from the ex-Bourbon barrel with a very good price-performance ratio. The medium-long aftertaste can be easily compensated for with a second dram.

Нос87Light, pear (Abate Fetel), yellow plums, some cherry, slight hints of tobacco and smoke.
Вкус88Nice round and soft, also here rather light fruit notes, a splash of lemon, clear vanilla, spicy wood notes and also some tobacco and light smoke.
Финиш87Medium-long, round, harmoniously ending, without bitter echoes - very nice.

This is another distillery that seems to be on the up but keeping up with their different types of whisky takes some doing. i like this 18 year expression, worth a purchase and so much better than Loch Lomonds of old.

They did well with this one. Having had the Inchmoan 18 a while back I was pleasantly surprised that this LL 18 beats that one in my book. Looking forward to compare it to the quite (European) oak-heavy LL 14 on of these days. Good bank for the buck.

Has a lot of the tropical, fruity, smoky Lomond DNA, with passion fruit, rubbery smoke and fir resin, although relatively weak. In addition, there are rather average malt and wood aromas.

It offers a super drink for its price. The complex is interesting and can appeal to all levels. Yes, it will not bring anything new to advanced players, but it will not cause anyone who does not have a problem with this profile to leave their glass half-done. Very smooth. Tasteful. Price performance: Very good Would I buy it again?: Definitely worth considering!

Нос86The nose is definitely industrial, greases are engine oils. Very light butter. Green fruits; green apple and green grapes. A very light funk. Vanilla at the bottom. Unripe fruits are added to the green fruits. An ethereal, solvent-acetone side. A little rubber, tire, car tire. Play dough. Young mulberry. Varnished wood. A tiny touch of malt. The contrast of the fruity base notes and the chemical dominant notes creates a very interesting nose. Extraordinary complexity at this price, a bit biting but not disturbing.
Вкус85A bit tannic on the palate, quite a bit of plum is added on the palate. Not as chemical as the nose, a play dough and almondy side rises. Pleasant but never as complex as the nose. The industrial side is still here with rubbery aromas. A bit below medium body. An oily side. Very little citrus peel. Sweetness a bit above low. Pleasant!
Финиш85Here a bit of bitter, key lime pie; green lemon peel and a creamy lactic side. Green grapes. Of course the chemical notes haunt us. The citric side is really obvious. The finish is not too long, between medium and short.

Pretty good performance, exceeding expectations. Full of aromas, it seems to be ex-bourbon barrels, full of pears, apples, wood, vanilla, etc. full of southern summer imagery. The malt aroma of the whisky itself is very strong, and the body is very thick, and finally retains some pungent peppery aroma, which can awaken the taste of the drinker, which I like very much. Personally like this bottle of whisky, especially after seeing its price: 18-year-old whisky, 46% ABV, but only costs 60euro? Very good, I will definitely continue to pay attention to this distillery in the future. The total taste is 85 points, the price +1 point, a total of 86 points.

Beautiful Loch Lomond with noticeably older age. Very tart and with strong oak tones. Still not intrusive or even superimposed. Tobacco and tea leaves are mentioned in the official notes. I underline that too. A strong, bitter dram. I like it.
Stefan_Hartl Expert Senior 79 17 jan 2021 1:02 pm
December 4th, 2020 You can drink, but you don't have to. I think the heavy oak is still okay, I find the musty notes a bit annoying.
Erik1908 Expert Senior 87 18 dec 2021 5:15 pm
Loch Lomond; a not very popular distillery. You do not see them on the shelves at Schiphol airport. It is what it is! But ever since I visited Loch Lomond distillery with my friends, I started to get more than average interested in their bottlings.

Нос88Impressive thick nose. Full of butter and vanilla. Without a shadow of the doubt; this is the LL signature.
Вкус87Soft, again thick, creamy and full body. A tad smoky; but very light. Mild spices; all well balanced. 46% abv is very ok. It does not need to be more; but a lower abv would have made it weaker.
Финиш87Medium long. Wood, spices and a touch of smoke in the finish.

Нос83Typical, fruity Loch Lomond. Apple crumble, banana bread, butter, a little orange but also a touch of phenolic smoke. Later also oak, pencil shavings, resin and cooling herbaceous aromas.
Вкус80Sweet, syrupy but nutmeg-like spice, oak, citrus zest, again slightly phenolic, smoky hints, seems almost overfruity and artificial.
Финиш78Long, fruity on the one hand, leafy on the other
2ndSip Connoisseur 84 19 feb 2022 11:52 am
emphasizes fruity on the nose, rather dark fruity sweetness of the fruits (but without sherry). In the taste, the focus is initially more on the spiciness and spices, only with the second sip do the fruit aromas come through better again. Unfortunately, for me it was too tart or too bitter from the oak. [86 - 82 = good whisky -> get (second) bottle? Maybe...]
нос · вкус · финиш
Нос86intense fruit aromas (sweet apples, pears, plums, apricots), forest and blossom honey, caramel. The sweetness also brings some marzipan or brown sugar. The fruity aroma is no longer light fruity for me, but is already changing into a heavier dark fruity note, but without the typical sherry notes being there - it can't be either. The fruit notes, which appear fresh, have a counterpart with dried fruit, which makes it exciting for me. A summer meadow of flowers can still be heard. In the background, but noticeable, spiciness on tap, which for me brings out nutmeg and cinnamon; light herbal notes that linger even further in the background.
Вкус84Pleasant, sweetish spiciness is now in the foreground, cinnamon, nutmeg and herbs intrude and thus displace the fruit aromas, which are also there, but rather play second fiddle. Tart notes (espresso, coffee grounds) are increasingly heard; slightly drifts off into bitterness, for me it just catches up before the tipping point (can also depend on the day). Second sip: spiciness again, this time sweeter components and the dark fruits now come into their own. But here again the spiciness of the barrel turns into a slight bitterness.
Финиш81Medium to long-lasting: tart, spicy notes of oak tannins. Dried Tea Leaves. Hint of walnut aromas, which, above all, are more reminiscent of the walnut skin. When everything has faded, a smoky barrel char-type aroma emerges for a brief moment, showing a slight cold ashy note.
JFMalt Expert Junior 86 19 jul 2023 3:43 am
Similar in profile to the 12yo, but surprisingly more spicy and vibrant that its younger sibling. Fruity on the nose, still ever so slightly spirity, decently mouth coating, but the finish is what I like the most.. medium, slightly oaky, with a hint of smoke.
DistiLesha Connoisseur 83 21 jun 2022 8:10 pm
For me personally, a very unusual flavor that hits the palate in the same strange way. A very unusual whisky that will surprise even the most sophisticated tasters. Although the whisky is unusual, it is rude like a rural brute, almost devoid of any sophistication, but it gives a lot of vivid sensations and leaves no one indifferent. Also, it seems to me that new-make contains a lot of tails or was kicked out on a low cube. I really want to know the average rating, it seems to me that I will put it lower. I never look at the average grade until I put my own. Yes. And so it happened. :) 21 22 20 20
vrtorrez Member Senior 88 22 mar 2023 10:34 pm
Surprisingly good! Ripe sweet fruits with a present malt and some sulphurous note, in a pleasant way. I tasted in a friend's house and bought it in the next day. Very hard to find this complexity for this price.

Loch Lomond 18 years, 46% alc. Original bottling (2020). Expansion: American oak barrels Nose: Very slightly smoky with different tobacco and pleasant fruit aromas. Pears, mirabelle plums, slightly unripe plums and tart apples, peaches. In addition, green tea and cigars, perhaps cedar wood and a bit of mushy banana. Also slightly musty aromas, like in a damp cellar. Palate: Oily and very intense, the fruit aromas are still present, still slightly tart with crumbly apples, watermelon and grapefruit, tobacco and a lot of tea. There is also mild ginger and a slightly stronger note of pepper, as well as a little nutmeg. Finish: very long, wood smoke, tobacco and a bit of fruit. The oak wood is present, slightly tingling with nutmeg and pepper. Conclusion: A really nice whisky with a wonderful aroma profile. Balanced between power, complexity and harmonious lines, really highly recommended. 87/100 points (2021) www.notesofmalt.com

EricLeeee Expert Junior 84 30 may 2022 4:58 pm
Nose The nose is first impressed by a rich spice, like cinnamon, accompanied by vanilla, fermented pear juice and a touch of malt, as well as some tart fruit, light smoke, and wood. Palate Thick and oily; the palate starts with the bitterness of aged oak, which fades to sweetness and the warm spices spread immediately, with ripe orchard fruit, leather, rich malt and some dark chocolate, as well as a hint of white pepper and smoke. Finish Med-long; dry, with a mix of bitter and sweet, the slight warm spice from the spices remains, similar to pepper and cinnamon, light malt, green tea, and tobacco, with a hint of sour plum soup after a while.
YD84 Expert Senior 89 30 sep 2022 12:27 pm
Superb, complex whisky. Doughy, malty, musty, industrial and fruity with a lick of rubbery peat and tobacco in the background. Absolutely delightful.

Very drinkable - this dram goes fast :-) Nose and taste are very balanced. Finish isn't really my thing - there is something weird there (and the finish is rather short too). But overall this is a great dram! Enjoyed tasting this!
нос · вкус · финиш
Нос86The nose is sweet with honey, grains, sweet malt, pear and a bit of sour apples. In my opinion the nose is the best! It has some prumes (maybe in combo with the sour apples). I seem to be missing the smoke... But there is something faint earthy (basement).
Вкус82The taste is good! Tannines and something beerlike (barley, malty). The mouth dries out a bit. Apple again (but not sour anymore). Even a bit creamy. At the back I taste something like grapefruit-peel and then some balanced sweets again.
Финиш72The finish is rather short; something I did not expect. I have oak, young wet wood, even some pencil chips and a touch of tobacco. Although these tasting-tones seem to be very nice, the real life combo isn't a 100% my thing. The finish disappointed me a bit.
