Presented at 46% ABV in a generous 70cl bottle, Our Barley is crafted to be enjoyed in many ways. Sip it neat to appreciate its full flavour, add a few drops of water to open up its aromas, or use it as the centrepiece of a relaxed whisky tasting. Its rounded style makes it accessible to newcomers, while its layers of flavour give experienced drinkers plenty to explore.

A Distinctive Lowland Whisky with Everyday Appeal

Lochlea Our Barley is the distillery’s first ongoing single malt release, created to showcase the spirit’s character and the quality of the casks used for maturation. The whisky has been matured in a combination of ex-bourbon, ex-sherry, and shaved, toasted and re-charred casks. Each cask type brings something different to the final whisky, helping to create a bottle that feels lively, well-rounded and full of detail.

• Fruit-led aromas: Enjoy inviting notes of pears in syrup, fruit bon-bons, freshly cut grass and bright marmalade.
• Sweet and warming palate: Golden syrup and cream soda bring a smooth sweetness, while black pepper adds a gentle spark.
• Layered character: Rye bread, macadamia nuts, orange and beeswax create a satisfying mix of savoury, nutty and citrus flavours.
• Versatile 46% strength: Full enough for sipping neat, yet flexible enough for a small splash of water or a carefully made whisky cocktail.
• Generous 70cl format: A practical bottle size for sharing, gifting or enjoying gradually at home.

Flavour That Goes Further

The first impression is bright and welcoming. Pears in syrup provide a soft, juicy sweetness, while fruit bon-bon aromas add a playful, confectionery note. Freshly cut grass gives the nose a clean, green lift, and marmalade brings a touch of citrus richness.

On the palate, golden syrup creates a smooth and comforting foundation. Black pepper adds a gentle warmth rather than overpowering heat, making the whisky lively but easy to enjoy. Notes of rye bread and macadamia nuts bring extra depth, followed by orange, cream soda and beeswax. The result is a whisky with plenty of personality, offering new details as each sip develops.

Why It Offers Excellent Value

Our Barley delivers the experience many whisky lovers seek: a carefully made single malt with a distinctive origin, thoughtful cask maturation and a satisfying level of flavour. The combination of three cask styles gives the whisky added complexity without making it difficult to understand or enjoy. That makes it a rewarding addition to a home collection and a strong option for anyone looking for a special bottle at a sensible price.

It also makes a memorable gift. Whether the recipient is discovering Lowland whisky for the first time or already enjoys independent Scottish distilleries, Lochlea Our Barley offers a fresh and distinctive alternative to more familiar names. Its balanced profile is suitable for celebrations, dinner parties, quiet evenings and whisky tastings alike.
