Lochlea Ploughing Edition first peated whisky

The team at Lochlea Distillery are delighted to reveal their fourth limited seasonal release, Lochlea ‘Ploughing Edition’

The launch date for Lochlea ‘Ploughing Edition’ represents the unequivocal connection between Lochlea Farm and Robert Burns, who lived and worked on the farm from 1777-1784. Lochlea ‘Ploughing Edition’ is inspired by the season of winter on the farm when the same fields that Burns tended are ploughed in preparation for sowing the barley seed in Spring. The bottle’s icy blue label reflects the cold and frosty west coast Ayrshire winters.

It is the first ever peated expression from Lochlea, matured in a combination of ex-Islay barrels and peated quarter casks, and the first smoky whisky created by Campbell since leaving Laphroaig. A comforting dram for the winter months, the resulting flavours include boiled sweets, cooked apples and brazil nuts, intertwined with a haze of lingering peat.
