Strong Dark

Loch Lomond es un cóctel de whisky escocés mezclado con Drambuie y vermut seco, adornado con un twist de limón. Es una bebida de espíritu fuerte y compleja que equilibra el whisky ahumado con la dulzura herbal de miel del licor escocés. Se sirve directamente en una copa de cóctel, lo que lo convierte en una opción refinada para los entusiastas del whisky escocés.

History & Origins

The Loch Lomond cocktail takes its name from the famous Scottish lake and was developed as a showcase for Scottish spirits. Its origin is disputed, though cocktails combining Scotch and Drambuie appeared in early 20th-century bar manuals. The addition of dry vermouth gives it a subtle continental sophistication alongside its unmistakably Scottish character.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Warm Scotch malt with heather honey and herbal notes from the Drambuie, lifted by bright lemon peel. Palate: Rich and full-bodied, with whisky warmth, honeyed spice, and a dry vermouth backbone providing structure. Finish: Long, warming, and bittersweet with lingering honey and peat.

Pro Tip

Stir gently over ice for at least 30 seconds to properly chill and dilute without over-watering the whisky.
