Glenlossie 10 Year (Adelphi)

 

Glenlossie: yet another nearly forgotten Diageo distillery used almost entirely to provide bulk anonymous volume for Johnnie Walker blends other Diageo fodder. A name that is unknown to 99.5% of Scotch drinkers, and even the single cask independently bottled options are hardly seen.

Glenlossie 11 Year (SMWS 46.128 "Lotta Good Stuff")

 


I have a theory that the fancier and more involved a nickname the Scotch Malt Whisky Society ("SMWS") gives a whisky, the better that whisky is. For example, the 30-year Macallan is "A Wizard's Poem" (wow) .... this poor Glenlossie - while not a bad whisky - got the short end of the stick: "Lotta Good Stuff." Gee, thanks, naming committee. The only name that could have less effort put in would be "A Whisky."
