Yorkshire's Cooper King Distillery has given us a little peek at what's going on with it whisky production by releasing a New-Make as part of the Pilot Series! Made with 100% floor malted barley, the spirit is subtly sweet and spicy, with loads of rounded malt notes running through it. Always exciting to see what a distillery could be working with to make whisky, especially when it's top quality stuff like this.
It's not simply just a fascinating glimpse into the future, but this New-Make also makes a great spirit for cocktails! Cooper King recommend trying it in a Martini with Lustau Vermut Blanco and The Bitter Truth Celery Bitters.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Honeyed and very slightly fruity. Clear, rounded barley elements, developing into softly spicy ginger and pepper notes.
