Lochlea
Ploughing Edition
2nd Crop
Single Malt | 46.0% ABV | 70cl
Inspired by winter on Lochlea Farm, when the fields are ploughed in preparation for sowing the barley seed in Spring. Matured entirely in ex-Islay 200 litre barrels, this release offers a fruity and sweet dram with a gentle kick of peat.
Summary
Ploughing Edition – Second Crop celebrates the winter season on Lochlea Farm, when the fields are turned and prepared for the next cycle of barley growth. Matured in 100% ex-Islay 200 litre barrels, this expression introduces a subtle smoky character to Lochlea’s signature spirit.
The result is a whisky that balances bright fruit sweetness with a gentle peat influence and soft coastal notes.
The icy blue label reflects the cold winter months on the farm, when the land is ploughed ahead of the spring sowing.
