Lochlea
Smoke Without Fire
A delicately smoky single malt inspired by Lochlea’s Ploughing Edition. Matured in a combination of ex-peated refill Bourbon barrels and red wine casks, this expression offers a beautifully balanced profile of soft red fruits, floral sweetness and gentle bonfire smoke.

Summary
Smoke Without Fire is a delicately smoky single malt and a proud addition to Lochlea’s core range. Evolving from our Ploughing Edition, this expression is matured in a combination of ex-peated refill Bourbon barrels and red wine casks, offering a beautifully balanced profile of soft red fruits, floral sweetness, and gentle bonfire smoke. This whisky captures the subtle complexity of peat influence without overpowering the spirit’s natural elegance.
