Producer Note
"Our seasonal small batch releases showcase our whisky in four different ways each year. As a working farm, these expressions tie in with exactly what is happening here at Lochlea. In this Fallow Edition for 2022, we have used a 100% fresh 1st-fill Oloroso Sherry Butts direct from Jerez, Spain. Autumn on the farm is when our fields are given time to recover after harvest and the crisp gold and purple leaves cover the ground. Therefore, we developed a dark, rich whisky to warm us up as temperatures start to fall."
"We are also the only distillery in the world who can rightfully claim that Robert Burns himself lived and worked here. He spent his formative years from 1777-1784 at Lochlea, and we are proud to work those same fields today 240 years on."
Something tells us that Lochlea has a bright future. Any Burns Day celebration without a bottle of Lochlea being poured will now seem somehow...incomplete.

"It first opens up with ripe red fruits and freshly baked warm banana loaf. Then some dried fruit and leathery notes appear, alongside malt biscuits. The finish is medium-length, with hints of aniseed and moreish floral rose petals."
