Lochlea our barley – Production Director John Campbell has carefully honed this recipe using his years of experience. He is using a combination of first-fill Bourbon, Oloroso Sherry and STR casks. This results in a whole new level of depth and complexity to the final whisky. Lochlea Our Barley is non-chill filtered with no added colouring.
First-Fill Bourbon:
Arriving directly from Loretto, Kentucky, our fresh first-fill Bourbon barrels help to impart golden syrup and cream soda flavours.

Oloroso Sherry:
Delivered straight from Jerez, our Oloroso Sherry butts present flavours of fruit bon bons, marmalade and macadamia nuts.

STR (shaved, toasted, re-charred):
Also transported directly from Jerez, our STR ex-Rioja barriques impart peppery spice and rye bread notes.
