The independent Scottish Lochlea Distillery is launching its first Single Malt. The First Release from Production Manager and Master Blender John Campbell (formerly Laphroaig) is a limited edition of 7,000 bottles worldwide. The whisky was distilled exclusively from barley grown by the farm distillery itself – a rarity in the industry.
