Inchmurrin 10 years old Loch Lomond Single Highland Malt Scotch Whisky 40%

There is an Inchmurrin for every taste – the 10-year-old is the one that stays closest to the distillery's raw, fruity base character, without the extra years that later soften the top notes.

Expert's Description

Inchmurrin 10 Year Old is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in American oak and bottled at 40%.

Inchmurrin is distilled on Loch Lomond's straight neck pot stills, which help create the distillate's pronounced fruitiness, reinforced by an unusually long fermentation. At 10 years, the whisky is fresher and more directly fruity than the older expressions of the same style.

Nose

Pear and red apples with a light honeyed sweetness and a touch of freshly cut grass.

Palate

Juicy fruit of peach and apple meets creamy vanilla and a delicate peppery spice.

Finish

Medium finish with lingering fruit and a drying, lightly peppery close.
