Cooper’s Choice 1967 Lochside
Country: Scotland
Region: Highlands
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: The Vintage Malt Whisky Company.
ABV: 40.5%
Score: 89 Points
One of the few bottlings available from this closed Highland distillery, and matured for 49 years in an ex-Bourbon cask. The nose is tart and citrusy with lemon custard, vanilla, milk chocolate, fudge, and a nice maltiness. The taste starts off soft, then turns tart and spicy with a nice burst of lemon pepper, vanilla, and hints of mango and orange peel. The finish is long, citrusy, and slightly astringent.
