DESCRIPTION

The Croftengea Single Malt Whisky from the Loch Lomond distillery, featured in Murray McDavid's Cask Craft series, is a notable release labeled "Smoky & Fruity." Croftengea is one of the peated whisky variants produced at the Loch Lomond distillery, renowned for its versatility in creating a range of whisky styles.

This particular expression was finished in both Port and Madeira barriques, bottled in 2023, and has an alcohol strength of 44.5% Vol. The double cask finish imparts rich and complex flavors to the whisky. The Port barriques add layers of red fruits and a hint of nuts, while the Madeira barriques contribute sweet oak spice and creamy notes. This finishing process enhances the natural peat smoke character of Croftengea, resulting in a vibrant, smoky, and fruity profile​​.

The relationship between Croftengea and Loch Lomond lies in the distillery's unique capability to produce multiple whisky styles under one roof, including unpeated and peated expressions. Croftengea represents the peated style, distinguished by its smoky character which is complemented by the fruity and spicy notes from the cask finishes​​.

  • Loch Lomond - Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

    The Loch Lomond Distillery is located in Alexandria, Scotland, and was founded in 1966. The distillery is known for its innovation and flexibility in whisky production. It uses both traditional pot stills and unique straight neck stills, allowing for a wide range of flavor profiles. The distillery produces single malt, single grain, and blended whiskies.

    Popular releases include the Loch Lomond 12 Year Old, Inchmurrin 12 Year Old, and Inchmoan 12 Year Old. These whiskies are characterized by fruity notes, sweet honey, and a hint of smoke, making them particularly versatile and accessible. The 18-year-old Loch Lomond is also highly regarded, offering a complex blend of ripe fruits, vanilla, and a slightly spicy note.

    Historically, the distillery was founded by Duncan Thomas and the American company Barton Brands. After several ownership changes and modernizations, it is now part of the Loch Lomond Group, which also includes the Glen Scotia Distillery. An interesting fact is that the Loch Lomond brand became known through the comic series "Tintin" by Hergé, although the brand mentioned in the series was independently invented and not related to the real distillery.

    Loch Lomond whiskies mature in a mix of bourbon, sherry, and wine casks, contributing to their complexity and depth.

  • Murray McDavid

    Murray McDavid was founded in early 1994 and quickly developed into a leading bottler of Scotch whisky. The company was one of the first to use a variety of interesting casks in the art of maturation to create inspired Scotch whisky. Murray McDavid was founded by the London wine merchants Mark Reynier, Simon Coughlin, and Gordon Wright of the Springbank Distillery. They quickly gained a reputation for maturing whisky in interesting casks, particularly noble wine casks.

    In 2000, the team at Murray McDavid set out to reopen the closed Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay, enlisting the services of Jim McEwan, the most famous Master Distiller of Islay. In 2012, the spirits giant Remy Cointreau purchased the Bruichladdich Distillery and Murray McDavid. Later, Murray McDavid was sold to its current owners, the leading Scotch whisky broker Aceo Ltd.

    Today, the home of Murray McDavid is the Coleburn Distillery in Speyside, where the tradition of bottling artfully matured Scotch whisky continues. Murray McDavid is known for its innovative methods of whisky maturation and the use of a wide range of casks, including wine casks, sherry casks, and other special types of casks, to create unique and complex flavor profiles.
