Customer photo review of Loch Lomond The Original Peated Rioja Cask Single Malt Whisky 70cl

Extremely well packaged and the little note inside to say which member of the team had packaged it was a nice touch. Delivery was fast and on time too so thats a huge plus. The whisky itself is superb and may take over the number one spot as my favourite malt. Nice and peaty without the peat killing your pallete and being able to enjoy anything else. It still holds true to the original but with the sweetness from the rioja cask coming through with those chocolately notes. This is the 3rd loch lomond expression I've had now and is my favourite. The team know what they are doing when it comes to creating whisky. Looking forward to trying a new expression soon!

Very good alternative to the original. On the nose loads of vanilla and fruit some light smoke and a hint of black and red currants. Tastes of blackberries, pear,honey and chocolate with light spice and smoke. Would recommend,this is my second bottle.
