MacNair's Lum Reek 12 Year Old Peated Scotch Whisky

MacNair’s Lum Reek 12 Year Old is a heavily peated blended malt Scotch from the GlenAllachie Distillers Company — 12 years of maturation from peated Highland and Islay single malts, assembled by GlenAllachie master distiller Billy Walker and named after the Scottish phrase for chimney smoke (‘lum reek’), celebrating the distillery’s signature smoky character.

MacNair’s is GlenAllachie’s blended malt brand, created under Billy Walker’s direction after his acquisition of GlenAllachie Distillery. The Lum Reek 12 Year uses peated Highland and Islay single malts in a 12-year aged blended malt format — a more accessible entry to heavily peated Scotch than full-strength single malt Islay expressions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Lum Reek mean?

Scottish Gaelic phrase for chimney smoke — ‘lum’ means chimney and ‘reek’ means smoke. The name directly references the heavily peated, smoky character of the expression and the smoke rising from the distillery’s chimney.

Is MacNair’s Lum Reek a single malt or a blend?

A blended malt — multiple single malts combined without grain whisky. The specific combination of peated Highland and Islay single malts is assembled by GlenAllachie. Not a standard blended Scotch (which would include grain whisky) and not a single distillery single malt.
