Суммаризация отзывов
Loch Lomond 16-year-old Falls of Falloch получает в основном положительные отзывы с оценками 83–92; чаще всего отмечают фруктовость, лёгкую сладость и умеренное влияние коньячных бочек на фоне фирменного характера Loch Lomond. Часть отзывов указывает на горечь, древесность или общую невыразительность.
развернуть подробно
В отзывах преобладает описание носа и вкуса как свежих, фруктовых и сладких: упоминаются яблоки, груши, персики, ананас, виноград, мёд, ваниль, цветочные и солодовые ноты, а также лёгкая пряность. Коньячная бочка, по ряду отзывов, добавляет узнаваемую, но не подавляющую сладость и винный характер, при этом алкоголь оценивается как хорошо интегрированный. Финиш чаще описывается как средний или средний-длинный, с древесными и пряными тонами; отдельные отзывы отмечают лёгкую горечь. Несколько отзывов противоположны: виски называют горьким и древесным, скучным и невыразительным, а также завышенным по цене.
Сводка опирается на 17 текстовых отзывов, среди которых есть как восторженные (фруктовость и сбалансированность), так и сдержанные (горечь, невыразительность, завышенная цена). Единого «экспертного консенсуса» тексты не образуют: оценки варьируются от 74 до 92, а мнения о влиянии коньячной бочки расходятся — от интересного дополнения до полного отсутствия в профиле.

After tasting this in the shop, I decided it was worth a try.

| Нос | 87 | Classic Loch Lomond nose. Sweet, fruity, little flower note in here too. The cognac influence is here too, which shows in some particular cognac sweetness. It is not drenched in cognac, but a mild recognisable finish. After a while there are some vanilla marshmellows and some heather in here. |
| Вкус | 87 | Sweet and round. The classic Loch Lomond notes are definatly here. Some fruit, some dirty notes which I only tend to find in Loch Lomond and never elsewhere. The cognac finish is there, but mildy recognisable. |
| Финиш | 86 | Medium lenght. A little sweetness from bourbon and from coganc are both there. This is fading away with a little tropical sweetness. The end is a tad bitter. |
Why? Because Loch Lomond has continued to develop positively. It used to be ideal for mixing, but today it's truly excellent in terms of price and quality. Everything about this dram is just right: the look, price, key data, and, above all, the nose and taste.

| Нос | 88 | Oh yes! Nice, really nice! Apples, pears, and peaches combined with light vanilla and a hint of cinnamon. It alternates back and forth. Very nice! Then you notice the 16 years of wood. Oak aromas add to that, and later, a little sweetness from the cognac finish. Grain! |
| Вкус | 88 | The cognac influence is more noticeable here. The vanilla recedes, allowing other flavors to emerge. It could be nougat with grapes. The alcohol is beautifully integrated. While the fruit is shy on the first sip, it comes back on the second. I like it! |
| Финиш | 87 | A truly stable and not uncomplex dram. I'd say it's medium to long, with a drier and spicier finish. The oak is evident with cappuccino notes (not really my thing, but it works well here). A drinkable wine! |
very bitter and woody
sounds good on paper, but in reality i found it very boring and for that overpriced

Tasted on July 10. Somewhere between 85 and 87.
Aroma: very pleasant, fruity, fresh, orchard fruit, apple, honey, grapes, pleasantly spicy - in aroma = completely yellow category in the color bar Taste: clean, malty, fruity, with a wine character, very delicious, pleasantly spicy - full, completely yellow bompar (corresponds very well to the aroma) * I really like Loch Lomond, but this is one of the things I will note and remember
Nose: bright pineapple, spices, earthy minerality, light vegetal Mouth: sweet fruits, pineapple, nuttiness, spices, light earthy vegetal, stewed vegetables, Finish: mid, minerality, oak spice, earthy funk, dungeness, reminds me of moutai in the slightest way(sweet, salty, briney umami). 86 sweet fruits and light vegetal
Very fresh, fruity, floral and sweet aroma, I absolutely did not expect this from this whisky but it surprised me very positively... The taste also has a very pleasant freshness, woodiness, yellow apples, malt, slight spiciness. Very nice to drink

Compared to the 18-year-old, it's slightly inferior. Despite its age, the whisky isn't sealed, but rather friendly, like a 10-year-old version. The aroma is typically whisky-like, but rather flat. The taste is simply tart and robust. With a very soft, smooth finish. Not aggressive, but with a gentle confectionery edge. Like proline or fudge, something like that. Still a delicious whisky.
We recently had a Loch Lomond tasting of the Inchmurrin 12, Steam & Fire, Inchmoan 12, Loch Lomond 18, this one, and the 22 year old Open Course. This was my favourite of the evening but basically all were good whiskies with an excellent price-quality ratio EXCEPT for the 22 which was the polar opposite. The cognac casks add an interesting dimension without overpowering everything else. Price is also acceptable for a limited release (if you're into that kind of thing). All in all a fresh and fruity type of dram which I would recommend to anyone who is into that style of whisky.

Quick taste: nice fruity touches, but there's something a bit musty and off about the nose as well. Only after tasting did I see the cask types and certainly that would explain that odd note I picked up. On the tongue the taste continues that fruity note. It feels alright, but the RRP feels too high for what it is.
tolerates some water, a whisky to chew

I have a weak spot for everything Loch Lomond - a pretty large one actually. Most of their releases are to my liking, but every now and then I find it rough and ‘hard working’ whisky. This, to me, is one of them. Couldn’t find my sweet spot and get past the amount of spicy notes. When I tasted it the first fill barrels used really took the center stage. Underneath some yellow fruits, some sweetness but mostly spices. Time, water, hand warmth.. I couldn’t find it.
