Description
Croftengea, Loch Lomond's peated single malt, was distilled in 2005 and matured for 19 years with approximately five years finishing in a moscatel hogshead—a honey-forward Spanish fortified wine cask that adds sweetness without excessive sherry character. The moscatel bridges peated Highland spirit and wine cask fruit, likely softening the distillery's typical sulphury edge while adding raisin, fig, and gentle spice. Bottled in 2024 by independent bottler Alistair Walker, this represents a thoughtful cask pairing for peated whisky. Suits those seeking peat tempered by fruit complexity rather than smoke alone.
