Lochlea PLOUGHING EDITION Second Crop Single Malt Scotch Whisky 46% Vol. 0,7l in gift box

Description

Lochlea Distillery is an independent single malt distillery based at Lochlea Farm in Ayrshire, near Glasgow in the Scottish Lowlands. The conversion of the former farm into a bonded warehouse distillery took place prior to the start of operations in August 2018 and the business is run by John Campbell, former manager of Laphroaig Distillery, and is family owned. The farm, where the Scottish poet Robert Burns lived and worked from 1777 to 1784, uses barley grown and harvested on the farm and water from limestone springs below the distillery. This enables full traceability of production.

The Lochlea Ploughing Edition 2nd Crop, matured in former Laphroaig casks previously used for the Laphroaig 10 Years Old, combines typical fruit and cereal notes with a hint of Islay. This edition, matured for longer and exclusively in fresh Islay casks instead of quarter casks, marks a significant step forward in development compared to the first batch. It is the last in a series that completes the 2nd Crop Set with the Sowing, Harvest and Fallow editions.
