The Lakes Whiskymaker's Reserve No.7 is the triumphant finale of an incredible series. With time in Oloroso, PX, and red wine casks of Spanish and American oak, it's a delightful blend full of unique flavour and character.

The amazing deep colour is fully from the result of ageing and it is non-chill filtered 52% Alc. without compromise.

These are the last few remaining bottles we have in stock - when they're gone, they're gone!

Cumbria hosts the Lakes Distillery, founded in 2011 by Paul Currie, co-founder of Isle of Arran Distillery. Situated within a renovated farmstead by River Derwent in a national park, they innovate due to limited space, using custom stills for whisky. Whisky master Dhavall Ghandi joined in 2016, infusing tradition with fresh inspiration. The Lakes introduced The Whiskymaker’s Reserve in 2019, a series of single malts. Located near Penrith, it's a gem of heritage and innovation.

About The Lakes Distillery

Located on the shore of Bassenthwaite Lake near Keswick in the Lake District UNESCO World Heritage Site, The Lakes Distillery is an award-winning English whisky distillery attracting over 100,000 visitors annually. Founded in 2011, the distillery has quickly established itself as a leader in English single malt whisky, with their Whiskymaker's Reserve No.4 winning "World's Best Single Malt" at the 2022 World Whiskies Awards. Under the guidance of master whiskymaker Dhavall Gandhi (formerly of The Macallan), The Lakes has developed a distinctive sherry-led house style that rivals Scotland's finest.

The Whiskymaker's Reserve Legacy

The Whiskymaker's Reserve series represents one of English whisky's most successful explorations of sherry maturation and house style development. Across seven releases, this collection has charted The Lakes' journey from startup distillery to world-class whisky producer, culminating in No.7 as the refined finale. Each release has shared the same DNA whilst exploring different characters through the art of élevage - the careful nurturing of whisky through various cask influences. This systematic approach to flavour development has established The Lakes as a benchmark for modern English whisky making.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What makes Lakes Whiskymaker's Reserve No.7 different from Scottish sherry whiskies?

Q: How does No.7 compare to the award-winning No.4?

A: No.7 represents the evolved, refined culmination of the series. Whilst No.4 won global recognition, No.7 showcases greater elegance and balance, making it the perfect finale to this iconic collection.

A: Yes, as the final release in The Whiskymaker's Reserve series, No.7 is a collector's item. The Lakes has moved on to their signature style, making this series increasingly sought-after by whisky enthusiasts.
