🎙️ Ep. 131 - LOCH LOMOND: Scotland's Most Flexible Distillery

Join me as I chat with Gary Mills, the Award-winning Brand Ambassador and Visitor's Experience Manager for Loch Lomond Distillery - a whisky that is making its way across the U.S. thanks to the Foley Family's distribution.  We'll dive into the unique history of the distillery, the stills that set it apart from the rest of Scotland, and I'll ask about how the Scotch Whisky Association put the breaks on how they labeled one of their whiskies.  We'll also learn the origins of the Lomond still and find out what the difference is between that and the unique column still at Loch Lomond distillery. We'll finish with a tasting of the 12 year and 18 year expressions and chat about the uniqueness of having a cooperage on site. 🌟 If you want bonus content, make sure you're a member of the Whiskey Lore Speakeasy, where this interview contains 20 more minutes that goes into the devil's cut, more details about the historic Littlemill Distillery, and the distillery's yeast focus.
