Product Description

Spearhead is a truly innovative single grain Scotch whisky that redefines the art of whisky-making. Crafted at the Loch Lomond distillery, this multi-award-winning whisky is distilled using a continuous Coffey still with 100% malted barley, delivering a lighter style of spirit while maintaining exceptional quality. After distillation, it is matured in ex-bourbon barrels before undergoing a unique finishing process using a blend of infrared and fire-toasted virgin American oak barrels.

The use of infrared toasting is a first in the Scotch whisky world, allowing for the extraction of intricate flavours that make Spearhead exceptionally smooth and subtly sweet, with flavours akin to bourbon. The result is a whisky with a velvety texture and a remarkable profile that appeals to both whisky connoisseurs and cocktail enthusiasts alike.

On the nose, Spearhead opens with violet floral notes and rich dark fruits like blackcurrant and blackberry, followed by hints of vanilla pods, caramel, and dark chocolate. The palate is an indulgent experience, with red apple, lime zest, vanilla fudge, and a touch of light brown sugar. The finish is long, smooth, and sweet, with lingering notes of melted brown sugar.

Spearhead is ideal for mixing, complementing flavours in stirred cocktails or spritz-style drinks. Its unique profile makes it perfect for highballs, tiki cocktails, or even a refreshing Spear & Beer pairing, where it works wonderfully with your favourite craft beer.

Whether enjoyed neat or mixed, Spearhead is a whisky that encourages exploration and enjoyment in a variety of ways.
