Blind Summit The Lochend Blend, Tawny Cask

The backbone of this limited release rests on a single cask of Ledaig for smokey coastal notes, add to that Caol Ila, Ben Nevis, Brackla, Macdu!, and Highland Park for body. It’s a serious whisky wrapped up in a fun label with a name that’s equally as fun to say. We like to say it’s ‘fun to say, fun to drink’. This release came about as a result of two things: Firstly the feedback from our first year of trading, secondly that we set out from day one to release a Blind Summit Whisky that could be enjoyed by a wide range of drinkers at an a!ordable price point. The Lochend Blend takes a little of everything we did in year one and blends it to make something fun and very drinkable. All Malt, Tawny Cask, quality ingredients, epic artwork. The label art is by our friend Danny Crofts, look him up he’s a very talented graphic designer and such a nice dude. It’s based on an image of Lochend Park. A personal spot for us, unique and full with history; a place James would walk his Dog Vinnie and Jamie would tell friends was fast becoming ‘the new Leith Links’. The blends is named after a blended malt that we used to make at home. The first versions of The Lochend Blend were always quality ends from single malts released by our indie bottling peers. No home made edition was ever this good however, no kitchen can replace a warehouse and no 5L cask is as great as a full Aussie Tawny Barrel. We’re very proud of this wee blended malt and can’t wait to see it out in the world. It’s priced for drinking and sharing.
