Crafted at the crossroads of tradition and innovation, Lohin McKinnon Whisky is the fruits of an extraordinary partnership between Brewmaster Gary Lohin and Distiller Stuart McKinnon. With over 25 years of brewing excellence and a legacy of international accolades, including three World Beer Cup medals, Lohin brings a deeply honed mastery to the table. McKinnon, hailing from Scotland with a decade of distilling expertise with Central City, infuses the process with time-tested techniques. Together, they produce whiskies that are as nuanced as they are full-bodied. A standout offering is the Niagara Wine Barrel Whisky, which marries the smoothness of single malt with the bold character of Ontario wine barrels. Each sip tells the story of meticulous craftsmanship, where the best of brewing and distilling unite to create something exceptional. The distillery’s pride is evident in every pour.
Lohin McKinnon's single malt whiskey is widely praised for its distinct character, leaving reviewers impressed with its unique flavor profile, which sets it apart from other whiskeys.
Tried a bottle of Lohin McKinnon single malt whiskey. It was amazingly good and different.
