Special Features:

Dark Briar is matured in a combination of PX sherry casks, Oloroso sherry butts and port casks. Inspired by the Fallow Edition, this cask composition gives Lochlea’s grain-led character an opulent dimension of juicy red fruit, ginger cake and velvety baking spices.

This distillery bottling is part of the core Single Estate Range. The bottle contains 0.7 litres, and the whisky is bottled at 46%, with natural colour and without chill filtration.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: The nose reveals fruit sweets, vanilla caramel and fresh baking spices.
  • Palate: On the palate, juicy cherries and sweet, sticky plums combine with warming tannins and ginger cake.
  • Finish: The finish is long and rich, with velvety tannins and baking spices lingering on.

Distillery/Bottler:

Lochlea is an independent, family-run farm distillery near Craigie in Ayrshire. The idea of establishing its own distillery emerged in 2014, and distillation began in the summer of 2018.

The distillery grows Laureate barley on its 90-hectare farm and draws water from its own well. The team produces the new-make spirit in two copper pot stills, and the resulting whisky matures in warehouses on the farm. Barley cultivation, distillation and maturation therefore remain connected at the same location.
