Lochlea Fallow Edition First-Fill Oloroso Sherry Butt Matured (Third Crop), 46%
Price: ● Issue: Summer 2025 ● Reviewer: Julia Higgins ● Category: Single Malt Scotch
Meant to drum up images of autumn on the farm, Lochlea’s Fallow Edition is in its final release, and boy, is it going out with a bang. The nose is redolent with wood spice, raisins, vanilla pastry cream, raspberries, Nutella, and cooked red fruit. The light-yet-luscious palate takes those notes up another notch: berries and raisins blend wonderfully with sweet malt, Black Forest cake, chocolate ganache, and cinnamon powder. A dram you’ll want to keep drinking...while you can! (Release date: 1/25)
