THE PLACE

Loch Ness (Scottish Gaelic; Loch Nis) is a deep, freshwater loch
and is the largest by water volume in Scotland.

Created from the last Ice Age around 10,000 years ago, It sits on the Great Glen Fault, which runs from Inverness in the north to Fort William in the south.

Home to the legend of the Loch Ness Monster, it remains as prevalent today as it has since the story of the very first sighting in 565 AD by St Columba.

You can own a little piece of Loch Ness and ponder on whether the monster
has swam through your very own bottle of Loch Ness Water.

THE PRODUCT

Loch Ness Water is like no other bottled product.

It stands proudly alone from the many other types of water available
due to the uniqueness of where the water is sourced, and as many would say,
“It’s not water we are selling, it’s Loch Ness.”

Extracted straight from the body of the world famous Loch Ness itself,
our water is then prepared and bottled right here in the Scottish Highlands.
Loch Ness Water’s special filtering process has been developed in close conjunction
with the Scottish governing food and drink agencies.

Loch Ness Water has utilised the jewel of the Highlands and bottled
the very water that is associated with myth and legend. Each bottle encapsulates a tiny fraction of that mystery – and it is now available for you to own and drink.

THE PLEASURE

The beauty of Loch Ness Water is that it sits very strongly in a number of market-places, most notably as a premium table water and as the perfect serve with Malt Whisky.

By adding a few drops of water to a whisky, you can open up different, new and subtle flavours that you previously had not experienced. This is especially true when drinking cask strength whiskies that have higher alcohol levels (these can be up to and over 60% ABV in some cases).

With cask strength whisky the alcohol and resulting burning in your mouth can overpower even the most prominent flavours. By adding some water, this dilutes the alcohol and reduces its effect, giving both the prominent and more subtle flavours a chance to shine.

THE PERSON

John Oag the founder of Loch Ness Water,
was born and brought up in the Highlands of Scotland.

As a child John traveled down the side of Loch Ness to visit his great grandparents
in Fort William for over 17 years. It was during these visits and hearing stories
about the monster and Loch Ness that John’s fascination and deep embedded love
for Loch Ness was entrenched.

As he grew up he often wondered why no-one had ever bottled the water
from Loch Ness. So after many years of this idea floating around in his mind,
he eventually decided that he would do something about it and capture
one of Scotland’s most abundant resources
from the most iconic location, Loch Ness.
