About Loch Lomond

When its grain distillery opened in 1994, Loch Lomond, at Alexandria, became the only distillery in Scotland making both malt and grain whisky on one site, and it still runs three kinds of still where most run one. Founded in 1964 by the owners of Littlemill, it made its name on versatility, its own-name malt sitting fruity and gently creamy between the bright and the smoky. Captain Haddock's favourite tipple shares the name, though Hergé's bottle was fiction. Loch Lomond Group's.
