Day 9 — Loch lomond 18
Day 9. Today we got ourselves a old favourite. Loch Lomon is one of those distilleries that no one has bad stuff to say about. As such today is a nice relaxing tram that should be easy to drink but proably very little to say about, That said I look forward to the discussion onver…
