Description
Margaret Lombard-Chibnall, current CEO, founded Lombard Scotch Whisky in the mid 1960's. As one of the original independents, Lombard was beholden to no single distiller. Entering the market as a supplier of bulk whisky to blenders, Margaret invested in whiskies of the highest standard. Select distilleries were commissioned to produce 'new fill' and from date of distillation, Lombard took full control of maturation. This is a 32-year-old whisky from closed and sought-after Highland distillery Brora. Distilled on 13 May 1982, 10 months before it closed for good and bottled on 28 July 2014. This whisky has a coastal character with notes of peat, pepper, and lots of spice. It scored an average of 94 points in Whisky Magazine in March 2016.
