Loch Gorm is exclusively matured in Oloroso sherry casks from the renowned bodega, Jose Miguel Martin. These ex-Oloroso sherry casks impart a combination of heavy sherry notes, spicy dark chocolate, rich fruits and burnt sugar. This balances beautifully with the Kilchoman peat smoke and citrus fruits found within our farm crafted spirit.

The heavily peated style of the distillery works in perfect harmony with the dried fruit and spice flavours from the sherry casks, something that can be hard to get right. In this case the smoke shines right through to the end but the journey getting there is very enjoyable. Highly recommended!

This new release is an improvement from the original Darkest, both of which are succulently sherried. It is fuller in flavor and more visceral, in both the nose and palate. These differences are subtle, but positive. Notes of lush fruit, raisin, pot-still rum, and Heath bars. Citrus and wood spices emerge, along with burning peat embers that linger on the finish.

This 18 year old integrates the sherry notes with the Bowmore signature to create a richly flavored Islay whisky experience. Thick toffee, ripe fruit, and tar-tinged smoke are accentuated by dark chocolate, cocoa powder, burnt raisin, dates, and sea salt. Long, entertaining finish.

The unabashedly briny opening bouquet is all peat, sea salt and salted focaccia; time in the glass serves to bring out a refined Sherry scent. In the mouth, it’s lean, surprisingly sweet and acutely resiny. Ends pine-like, resiny, moderately salty, fruity (yellow fruit, like yellow plum or banana) and semisweet.

A vatting of 5 and 6 year old malt whiskies which have been aged in both ex-Bourbon and ex-Oloroso Sherry barrels (with a bias towards the Bourbon casks). The style of the whisky is typical peated Islay with a strong medicinal and maritime aromas, the palate has a pleasantly buttery texture and typical fresh fruit flavours usually found in young malt whiskies.
