Lochlea
Our Barley
Single Malt | 46.0 % abv | 70cl
Our award winning core single malt expression, Our Barley sits alongside our seasonal limited-edition whiskies. It is made from and inspired by our barley, grown here on Lochlea Farm.
Summary
Our Barley is a celebration of the barley that defines our Single Estate Range. The nose reveals pear syrup and fruit bonbons, layered with warm cut grass and a touch of marmalade. On the palate, expect golden syrup, cracked pepper, and rye bread, enriched by macadamia nuts and a hint of cream soda. The finish is long and citrus-led, with a lingering orange beeswax note—a fitting tribute to the barley that launched our single malt journey.
