Lochlea Distillery 2020/2025 - 5 y.o. - Single Oloroso Sherry Cask #244 - The Awakening Series

Special features: This impressive single malt whisky from the emerging Lochlea Distillery matured for five years in an Oloroso sherry cask and was bottled at natural cask strength of 59.6% ABV. The limited single cask release is part of the exclusive "The Awakening Series 2025," which was presented at the first Whisky Live fair in Hamburg.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Ripe dried fruits like raisins and dates, accompanied by caramel, brown sugar, and a hint of orange zest. Behind this, fine oak spice, chocolate, and a touch of leather unfold.
• Palate: Full-bodied, sweet, and spicy – dark fruits, toffee, and vanilla merge with sherry spice, oak wood, and a hint of espresso. The strong alcohol carries the flavors with impressive depth while remaining wonderfully smooth.
• Finish: Long, warming, and elegant – with notes of cocoa, sherry, caramelized nuts, and gentle spice in the aftertaste.

Distillery/Bottler: The Lochlea Distillery is a young distillery in the Scottish Lowlands, distinguished by innovative production methods and the use of its own grain. With the "The Awakening Series," it presents special single cask releases that impressively showcase the diversity and depth of its whiskies.
