Derbyshire drink maker White Peak Distillery has a growing whisky reputation and its Small Batch series demonstrates why. The latest slightly peated spirit was bottled at a higher ABV than the previous release at 47.7% ABV after it was matured in a combination of first-fill bourbon and STR casks, and also has a higher proportion of American oak. The casks were selected from the upper dunnage at the distillery where the warmer temperatures provide variation in wood extract. It was bottled with 100% natural colour and was also non-chill filtered.

Distillery Information

English whisky, rum, and gin makers White Peak is a Derbyshire-based distillery that was founded in 2016 by husband-and-wife team Max and Claire Vaughan. Its located at the former Johnson & Nephew Wire Works amongst the woodlands on the banks of the River Derwent and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. White Peak is the creator of the Wire Works Whisky, the first batch of which was distilled in the spring of 2018. Its signature flavour profile is the result of a process that occurs entirely on-site, from the mashing of both unpeated and peated malt (about 6ppm) to the slow four-day fermentation featuring live yeast from a local Derbyshire brewery, and the impact of its unique Wire Works home has on maturation. We actually had the pleasure of filming the launch of the first-ever Wire Works Whisky launch and you can see our videos on the process below. Enjoy!
