English Whisky

Though distilling in England has roots going back centuries, the modern English whisky revival began in 2006 with the St. George’s Distillery in Norfolk. Today, there’s a growing wave of English distillers crafting single malts, grain whiskies, and even peated styles.
English whisky is made using traditional pot stills, locally grown barley, and matured in a wide range of casks—including bourbon, sherry, cider, and red wine barrels. Flavors vary but often lean toward biscuity malt, orchard fruit, floral tones, and creamy vanilla, with some expressions venturing into smoke and spice.
The cooler, wetter English climate results in a slow, steady aging process, producing delicate and nuanced drams. This young category is proving to be inventive and terroir-driven.

English Spirit Distillery English Spiced Rum, 50cl

£40.99

Jam-packed with luxurious flavour, this scratch distilled rum is infused with red cherries, hibiscus and vanilla. The result is a delicious English spiced rum that’s great for sipping, or as a base for cocktails.. “This drink differs dramatically from your usual Caribbean rums, and in our opinion for the better. Its subtle warmth & hint of cherries gives it a distinctive flavour, from the first sip to the end of the glass it is a real treat. The use of alternate British fruit that is often forgotten made us like it more.” – Judging Panel, Great British Food Awards 2020.. “A very good rum, much more on the fruit side of the spectrum which I love, but in the background is all the textbook warmth and roundness and some really lovely ginger going on. The alcohol is well incorporated and balances out well, nothing is too harsh, it’s basically smooth sailing, and that’s exactly where I’d like to drink this… on a sailboat, in the sun.” – Charlie Stein, October 2020

£71.99

Filey Bay Double Oak Batch 2 is matured in a combination of virgin oak (adding fruit and spice) and bourbon casks (vanilla and toffee). It’s packed with flavours of sweet dried fruit, creamy vanilla malt, and sweet cinnamon spice flavours.. The previous bottling (Double Oak Batch 1) was awarded a coveted World Whisky Master in 2022 – the team have built on this success and produced a limited run of 2000 bottles of Batch 2.. The virgin oak brings fruity and spicy notes, whilst the ex-bourbon casks balance this with vanilla and toffee flavours.

A number of these were then transferred into Virgin Oak casks, and regularly nosed and tasted for 13 months to find the perfect balance.

Lakes Infinity whisky is a new entrant to the Editions series, a whisky matured in a combination of 4 types of sherry casks: oloroso, palo cortado, fino, and manzanilla.

There is also a wonderful cakey, nutty flavour underpinned by butterscotch and pepper. And like it’s name the taste lingers for a wonderfully long time.. 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 and a smaller one for Lakes Gin/Vodka. 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.
