producer Description
"Croftengea is one of the elusive single malts produced at the versatile Loch Lomond distillery in Alexandria. Our Croftengea, from 2007, has been matured in the industry standard, a refill ex-Bourbon hogshead, so this is all about the distillate: briny, salty and smoky."
About the Label
"Using their straight neck pots, 17 perforated plates and a cooling ring gives this distillery a lot of flexibility to create different flavour profiles. In addition they use different yeasts and cutpoints to create their range of spirits. Croftengea is the name for their straight neck pot still, peated distillation. It tends to be quite juicy and spicy, as well as peaty. The peat used is mainland from Peterhead, and the malt is peated to 55 ppm."
