Lochlea OUR BARLEY Single Malt Scotch Whisky is the first regular core range bottling from the Lochlea Distillery, marking an important milestone in the Scottish distillery’s still-young history. The distillery is located in Ayrshire in the Scottish Lowlands and adheres to a consistently farm-based approach. A specific combination of different cask types was chosen for OUR BARLEY: the Lowland single malt is matured in first-fill bourbon barrels, Oloroso sherry butts and STR barriques. STR stands for ‘Shaved, Toasted and Re-charred’ and refers to wine casks that have been treated in this way. This combination was developed to express Lochlea’s distinctive house style in a release that will be available on a permanent basis.


John Campbell, who previously worked at Laphroaig for many years and collaborated with the Lochlea team on the blend, played a central role in the development of Lochlea OUR BARLEY. The single malt Scotch whisky is bottled at a robust 46 per cent in a 0.7-litre bottle, complete with a gift box. The combination of bourbon, sherry and STR casks brings together different influences and enhances the fruity, grain-forward yet spicy character of the expression. This makes OUR BARLEY an excellent introduction to the Lochlea Distillery range, whilst also appealing to whisky lovers seeking a modern single malt from the Scottish Lowlands with a varied cask composition.
