The English Whisky Co. distils at St George’s Distillery in Norfolk, England’s first licensed whisky distillery in over a century. The English Rum Cask Matured is a very special whisky made from a unique process at the distillery. This single malt matures for many years in casks that previously held rum, which had itself been maturing at the distillery for over a decade before giving up its cask for the whisky to sleep in. The result is a wonderfully creamy Small Batch malt that is a perennial favourite with the distillery team, with its aroma and taste evoking rum-and-raisin ice cream.
In a distillery that already limits batch sizes to ensure that every whisky made is exceptional, The English Small Batch range takes it to the next level. These limited releases showcase the expertise of the distillery team in using various techniques to bring out the depth of flavours in their exceptional stocks of single malt whiskies. Each batch is unique, and once it's gone, it's gone!
