Lochlea – Ploughing Edition First Crop (70cl)

Ploughing Edition is the fourth limited seasonal release of single malt from Lochlea distillery in Ayrshire, launched on Burns Night 2023. It is inspired by winter and by Lochlea Farm, where Robert Burns lived and worked from 1777 to 1784. It is the first smoky whisky from the distillery, matured in a combination of ex-Islay whisky barrels and peated quarter casks, which give a warming, lightly peated character. On the palate there are cooked apples, brazil nuts and boiled sweets, with peat smoke lingering throughout.
