Description
🥃 LOCHLEA OUR BARLEY
Alcohol Percentage (ABV): 46%
Taste & Flavor Profile: This foundational single malt from the Lowland region offers a fresh, farm-forward flavor profile centered around the barley itself. The nose is bright and inviting with notes of green apple, pear drops, soft vanilla cream, and a distinctive cereal sweetness like buttered toast. The palate is wonderfully creamy and smooth, delivering flavors of oat biscuits, hazelnut, cinnamon spice, and a gentle wave of citrus zest and caramel. It finishes medium, clean, and surprisingly complex for its age, with a warming maltiness.
Key Details: This is the core bottling from Lochlea Distillery, a unique Lowland producer that emphasizes its “farm to bottle” ethos. Every bottle is made using barley grown, harvested, and distilled entirely on the family farm, ensuring full traceability and a terroir-driven flavor. It is bottled at 46% ABV, is Non-Chill Filtered, and of Natural Colour, and is matured in a combination of first-fill ex-Bourbon, Oloroso Sherry, and STR Barriques, which contribute to its fruity and creamy complexity.
