Usually found as a component of a Johnnie Walker blend, this Highland Whisky is something special—and we don’t say that lightly.

Lochnagar got its prefix "Royal" when Queen Victoria and Prince Albert visited the distillery quite some time ago. A great Highlander with a storied heritage, this Rare Malts edition is more than worthy of its royal name. Grab it while you can!

Character Dogson
Nearby Balmoral Castle was a summer retreat to Queen Victoria, who enjoyed skipping out on her responsibilities for a ride down to the stillhouse. Smart woman.
Single Malt Scotch Whisky is made in Scotland using a pot still distillation process at a single distillery, with malted barley as the only grain ingredient. It must be matured in oak casks in Scotland for at least three years (most Single Malts are matured longer, though).
90% of all Scotch Whisky released in the market is a blend. That’s a hell of a lot.
Whisky or Whiskey? The spelling differs geographically. In Scotland, Japan, and some other parts of the world, distilleries usually spell it Whisky; in Ireland and the USA, they spell it Whiskey.
Scotch Whisky is seldom aged in new barrels. Bourbon and Tennessee Whiskey casks are usually used for maturation. In addition to that, Whisky is often matured or finished in various wine casks such as Sherry or Port.
Third time's the charm. Lochangar burned down twice, before getting wise and building the third and final facility next to a river.
