Peated English Whisky Trio, 3 x 70cl

If you like your whiskies peated, this triplet of delights is a fantastic way to experience what England has to offer. This trio contains:

1 x 70cl Cotswolds Peated Cask

Using floor-malted Odyssey barley, along with Anchor and Fermentis yeasts, the spirit is allowed to age in ex-peated quarter casks: much smaller than your standard whisky cask. These smaller casks add a delicate smokiness to the whisky - harmonious and well integrated rather than a beast of a peat monster. Distinctive and stylish.

1 x 70cl Smokey Virgin Oak Cask Peated, The English Distillery

Smoky and complex, this tasty whisky, aged in Smokey Virgin Oak Casks (and bottled in 2022) is testament to the skill of the team at The English Distillery, and how long they have been in operation (since 2007).

This peaty dram offers an intense taste of smoky, rich flavours that showcase brilliantly the positive effect of using a virgin oak cask (something that is not permitted in Scotland!).

1 x 70cl Filey Bay Peated Finish

Filey Bay is now on Batch 3 of this impressive Peated Finish whisky. Distilled in Yorkshire, the whisky was first matured in a selection of first-fill bourbon barrels, before a undergoing a secondary maturation in peated casks. Bottled with its natural colour at 46% ABV. Subtle and softly smoky but with bucketloads of character.

This single malt is well worth trying, especially if you like the style of malts from the west coast of Scotland. A light, fresh whisky with a coastal tang. Flavours of caramel, peat smoke and citrus.
