About Fary Lochan

FARY LOCHAN DESTILLERI A/S was established in 2009. It is one of the smallest distilleries in the world, and it produces only a relatively small amount of whisky each year. In return, the whisky is of the highest quality, and they do not compromise! Everything is handmade in line with traditional Scottish traditions.

The stills are custom designed in Scotland to give their whisky exactly the taste they want, every time. And their taste is quite unique, as they are the only ones in the world who use fresh nettles when they smoke their malt.

Their whisky comes in four variants. They call them "the 4 seasons". The taste is round and soft in all variants, including the ones with smoke. And they stand 100% behind taste, quality and the good story. They also make plenty of snaps, liqueurs and other exciting products.

Tips for your Cloudy Lochan

The recipe is written in parts, so you choose the measure. An example for a single glass is 4 cl whisky, 2 cl syrup and 2 cl lemon juice. Apricot gives a fruity drink, while hazelnut makes it rounder and more nutty. Use freshly squeezed lemon, not bottled juice.

My verdict on Cloudy Lochan

It is an easy drink that lets the light summer whisky stand out and does not hide it behind too much else. It needs no shaker, so it is a good pick if you just want to try Danish whisky in a cocktail. We do not know of any documented history behind the drink itself.
