An interesting single cask whisky bottled at cask strength in 2011 by The Whisky Exchange. Lochside produced both grain and malt whisky from its opening in 1957 until the early 1970s and this is a 'single blend' using only whisky from the distillery. Unusually, the whisky was blended before ageing, with the mix of grain and malt maturing in the same cask for 46 years. A very rare style from this now closed distillery.
A big and chunky Lochside from Adelphi, bottled at 46 years old from a sherry cask. This is a blend with a difference, with new grain and malt spirit from the now-closed Lochside distillery filled into the same cask and left to mature until 2011, making a 'Single Blend'. THIS IS LIMITED TO ONE PER CUSTOMER.
