Product description

Product description
The 12-year-old Royal Lochnagar has been part of the Classic Malts Selection since 2005. Strong attack combined with a light smokiness and the scent of the sherry casks make it so pleasant and strong. The distillery is located right next to Balmoral Castle, the Scottish castle of the British Queen. Queen Victoria and her German Prince Consort Albert appreciated it very much!

The Distillery: Royal Lochnagar

    Abgang: Sweet Malt

    Kommentar: Er ist irgendwie nichts Besonderes, für auch weniger als 50€ gibt es viele spannendere Whiskys.

    Kommentar: Grundsätzlich ganz gelungen, aber warum traut man sich nicht, den Malt ohne Kühlfiltrierung und Färbung abzufüllen ? Leider gibt es auch keine unabhängigen Abfüllungen zum Vergleich. Fazit: Da wäre noch Potential nach oben.
