About 16 years ago i bought one bottle of Loch Dhu and one miniature bottle for less than 10 £ from a shop near Lochness lake. There were tens of botles in a heap in the center of a local spirit shop. I opened the miniature and i thought it tasted great. I kept the big bottle for later but now i think is beter to keep it unopened..

Bought a bottle 6 years ago, opened it this weekend for my 50th birthday. Pour into a small snifter over 2 cubes of ice (it's an American thing) and the flavors open...caramel, vanilla, and smoke. Truly heaven-sent! Real whiskey for real men!

This was a great single malt. And those that would give it a bad review are reds eaters.

I can't believe people like this particular whiskey? This has to be one of the worst single malts I ever struggled through.

Used to love drinking this hen it was in production(and relatively cheap). Now my last unopened and boxed bottle will wait until it gets to a £1000, then I'll drink it.(or leave it to my son if I die first)

This stuff tastes great I have drank a couple of bottles in the past when it was a tenner. It's a shame it's no longer produced.

Loch Dhu The first 2 bottles i bought some years ago cost me 10 each I now have 6 bottles which i will never open as i have heard it tastes like dissinfectant I was also lucky to obtain a Loch Dhu cardboard box to make my six pack totally original. I reacon in 30 years time a bottle will cost 800! ideal for my Grand Kids. Bob

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!I personally think that it tastes amazing, it is not a conventional malt, but wouldn't be very boring if we were all the same?www.whiskyintelligence.com reports that someone is selling a whole collection of Loch Dhu.

^^...beacuse it is an extremely rare collectors item discontinued about 10 years ago. It's become very valuable even though the whisky itself its diabolical.

- anonymous, 23rd Apr '10

Actually, it reminds me of fernet (not the Italian Fernet Branca, but of the very popular-at-home Czech Fernet made by Stock at the city of Pilsen).

I happen to own a bottle of this rare stuff and I seriously regret that I once opened it for consumption. I cannot recall when I last tasted such an awful whisky and when one finds out the value of an unopened bottle my only advise is - Never open your bottle if you own one!

Considering the apocryphical account of how the Scotts invented Whisky, this is what the original Whisky must have tasted like. Condensed liquid falling from the cailing after burning a batch of failed malt for ale.Considering 'Loch Dhu', I find truth in this story.

Wonderful! Not as good as the first that came. But good what nice it is!Been looking for it since I first tasted it ten years ago. in Bosnia.Michael in Sweden
