The Lochlea PLOUGHING EDITION Third Crop Single Malt Scotch Whisky 46% vol. 0.7 l + GB is a limited-edition special bottling from the young, up-and-coming Lochlea Distillery in Ayrshire, Scotland. This farm distillery stands for absolute transparency, regional provenance and sustainable production, as it grows and processes its own barley in the surrounding fields. The ‘Ploughing Edition’ is part of Lochlea’s Seasonal Series, which reflects the four seasons and agricultural phases on the farm – in this case, the ploughing of the fields in winter.

The Third Crop Edition symbolises the distillery’s third harvest and represents consistency and growth in craftsmanship. This single malt was matured in an exceptional combination of ex-Islay and ex-bourbon casks, giving it an exciting interplay of smoky, spicy and sweet, vanilla-like aromas. With an alcohol content of 46 per cent by volume and without chill filtration or colouring, it is authentic, natural and full-bodied.

The Lochlea Distillery, once run by Robert Burns’ family, expresses the fusion of Scottish tradition and modern distilling craftsmanship with this bottling. The whisky reflects the rugged beauty of winter in Ayrshire – powerful, earthy and elegant all at once.

A characterful winter whisky that reflects Scotland’s agriculture, craftsmanship and soul in every facet.
