Lochlea Cask Strength Batch 1

Smell

The single malt opens immediately with ripe light and dark fruits - there is no need to "let it breathe". Pear, apple, blood orange, rum, cinnamon, tobacco leaves, milk chocolate, vanilla and coffee beans open a true composition of flavours. Red grapes are also perceptible, which flatter with a light wine note.

Taste

Full steam ahead - the usual Lochlea signature is clearly in the foreground. Bright fruits and light nutty notes. Mouth-watering and slightly dry, the whisky shines with caramel, vanilla and forest honey. Surprisingly not spicy at all and really smooth, we taste a big load of buttery cinnamon buns. The palate is rounded off by toasted croutons.

Finish

Medium-long, the cask-strength whisky tingles on the palate with hints of fresh oak and chocolate.
