2022 saw the launch of not only our ongoing core single malt, Lochlea 'Our Barley', but also our 'First Crop' of limited seasonal releases. Each one of these shows Lochlea Single Malt in a different light, reflecting exactly what is happening on the farm with the changing seasons.
Lochlea 'Harvest Edition' (First Crop)
In late Summer we harvest our golden barley, ready for it to be used to make Lochlea single malt whisky the following year. We chose a coral-red label to reflect the Ayrshire soil, which changes colour to a deep sunset hue once our barley has been harvested.
