LOCH LOMOND Highlands Whiskey History and Provenance

LOCH LOMOND Highlands Whiskey is a whiskey from the Highlands, lands known as well for its whiskeys, with the largest area in scotch whiskey production, as for its Highlanders Games or its famous Loch Ness.

In the Highlands, a region in the north of Scotland, there are whiskeys of an impressive diversity, since under the same regional name 30 distilleries coexist, with styles as different as the whiskeys of the islands, with the exception of Islay (Jura, Skyes ...), whiskeys from the fertile plains of the West, whiskeys from the mountainous areas, and whiskeys from the north such as Old Pulteney and Glenmorangie.
This is why the Highlands region has been subdivided into 4 production regions which are Eastern Highlands, Central Highlands, Western Highlands and Northern Highlands. It is Captain Haddock's whiskey in Tintin.

LOCH LOMOND Highlands Whiskey , a Single Malt ?

This whiskey is a Single Malt. To be a Single Malt a whiskey follows 2 immutable rules. The whiskey must be produced in a single distillery (Single), then be made only from malted cereals (Malt).
The malted cereal must be barley, sometimes in rare exceptional cases it is possible to use rye. Scotland is the biggest single malt supplier. These are then Scotch Single Malt Whiskey, but you will find other producing countries such as Japan, India, the Czech Republic or France which also offer Single Malt.
The rule is the same, the whiskey must be the product of one and the same distillery and the cereal used must be malted barley.
