Continuing their Whisky Month 2024 celebrations, Geraldo's are hosting a free whisky tasting from Lochlea Distillery which even boasts a strong Robert Burns connection.
Lochlea started life as a cattle farm, but in 2015 the team of Lochlea Distillery embarked on an experiment, growing 50 acres of malting barley and slowly gaining the experience to develop and operate a single malt distillery in 2018.
Since then, they have been growing the barley on-site, and the distillery team have been skilfully and patiently making spirit.
The land at Lochlea is important, and not just to the distinctive taste of their whisky. This was the land that Robert Burns tended when he lived at Lochlea Farm, inspiring his thinking and development as a poet.
Join Patrick Dupuy in-store and sample the delights of Lochlea's unique home-grown malts on Saturday from 1-5pm.
This is a free in-store tasting with no booking required.
