About This Lochlea whisky
Lochlea ‘Harvest Edition’ (First Crop) is Lochlea Distillery's second seasonal limited edition. It follows the popular Lochlea ‘Sowing Edition’ (First Crop) which launched in March 2022.
Lochlea ‘Harvest Edition’ (First Crop) is inspired by the busy harvest season on Lochlea Farm. This is a key time at the farm, when the barley is ready to be harvested and used for next year’s whisky. The bottle’s ashy coral red label and carton were chosen to reflect the summer sunsets and Ayrshire soil. The soil changes to a deep red hue once the barley has been harvested.
John Campbell, Lochlea Master Blender, said: "Harvest Edition is a combination of three cask styles. The main point of emphasis is to introduce Port cask flavours into Lochlea single malt. Port casks will help to elevate summer fruits and creaminess to the Lochlea signature flavour profile.”
