Lochlea Dark Briar

Lochlea proudly unveils its Single Estate core range of single malts, a permanent collection that reflects our commitment to provenance, quality, and character. Distilled and matured entirely on-site in Ayrshire using our own barley, these whiskies build on the success of our seasonal releases, offering a consistent and expressive taste of Lochlea all year round. Crafted to showcase both the versatility of our spirit and the influence of carefully selected casks, the core range is a true celebration of grain-to-glass whisky making.

Dark Briar is a bold and indulgent addition to the collection, inspired by our much-loved Fallow Edition. Matured in Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry butts alongside Port casks, it delivers layers of rich red fruits, sticky plums, and cherries, lifted by ginger cake, vanilla caramel, and soft baking spice. The palate is big and generous, with warming tannins and velvety depth, leading to a long, spiced finish that lingers with elegance.
