Bottled at 46% ABV, the whisky was matured in first-fill bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks, during which time it developed layers of vanilla and nutty flavours. Further releases from Lochlea are expected very soon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field--item\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Lochlea\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field--item\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginally a South Ayrshire cattle farm Lochlea pivoted to barley growing with the aim of estabilishing a distillery and finally began producing spirit in 2018. An independent and family owned distillery Lochlea benefits from the expertise of ex-Laphroaig distillery manager John Campbell, who oversees the production of this elegant and fruity spirit. Lochlea is steeped in history, the barley is grown in the same fields once worked by illustrious former tenant Robert Burns, and their inaugural release hit the market on the 25th of January in his honour. Driven by a field to cask philosophy and unburdened by an inflexible corporate structure Lochlea has positioned itself as a progressive and responsive distillery with the potential to create some innovative small-batch whiskies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e46% ABV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e70cl\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lochlea","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54917825724741,"sku":"","price":38.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/9495\/8661\/files\/LochleaOurBarley1stFillBourbon_Oloroso_STRButtsLowlandSingleMaltScotchWhisky_2022_70cl1.jpg?v=1749765702","url":"https:\/\/b1yyjg-bk.myshopify.com\/products\/lochlea-our-barley-1st-fill-bourbon-oloroso-str-butts-lowland-single-malt-scotch-whisky-2022-70cl","provider":"Whisky Situation Old","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
