Description
Named after a famously dark and peaty loch overlooked by the distillery, Loch Gorm is a sherry cask single malt matured exclusively in oloroso casks, extracting the rich spicy character of the European oak as it ages in our Islay warehouses.
Loch Gorm is Islay’s biggest freshwater loch with an abundance of wildlife and dark peat coloured waters. The Allt Gleann Osamail burn, from which we collect our production water, is one of the loch’s major tributaries.
Loch Gorm 2018 is a vatting of nineteen oloroso sherry butts filled in 2007, 2008 and 2011, bottled in Spring 2018
NOSE – Orange peel, cloves, caramel and mixed spice with waves of fruit cake and citrus.
PALATE – A beautiful balance of spicy richness, cooked fruits, chocolate with layers of brown sugar sweetness and earthy peat smoke
FINISH – Mouth-filling peat smoke, lasting tropical sweetness, toffee and rich dried fruit.
