Glenlochy Glenlochy Distillery was established at Inverlochy on the north-eastern side of Fort William in 1898 with a railway siding connecting to the newly opened Fort William railway line. Glenlochy Distillery obtained its water from the slopes of Scotland’s highest mountain. The only official release of Glenlochy single malt whisky was in Diageo’s Rare Malts range. Closed in 1983 & dismantled in 1986 however a number of Glenlochy Distillery buildings are still standing having been converted to private accommodation. On the nose mulled fruits with hints of cooking apples. Smoky palate initially with charred oak & dry spices. Fruity notes with roasted malt & dry grass flavours.
