Very exciting stuff here, folks! This is the first single malt whisky from the Cotswolds Distillery (as well as being the first single malt whisky ever distilled in the Cotswold countryside!). A much-anticipated release, which has been produced using barley grown in the Cotswolds, distilled in their Forsyths copper pot stills (Mary & Janis) and aged in a combination of ex-bourbon and red wine casks. We've been eagerly awaiting this whisky, and we know plenty of you have been too!
Nose: Honey and butterscotch layered with light peach and apricot fruits, and a hint of marzipan.
Palate: Tannin-rich malt, oils and dark sugar upfront followed by fresh spice and caramelised Seville orange marmalade.
Finish: Long and resinous, with dark red fruits and a hint of treacle.

Far more complex than a 3 year old whisky should be. Beautifully balanced, with an interesting red wine finish right on the back of the nose. I'll be keeping an eye on this distillery for sure. 5 stars.

A whisky that is punching well above it's weight. Picked this up at a food festival in Gloucestershire and im glad i did. Lovely nose of honey and marzipan, soft in the mouth with a orange marmalade finish. Beautiful. Will be buying more while its less known!

This is an excellent new-comer to the market. Has all the flavor and character of a single malt scotch! Nice and spicy, nutty flavour. Cutting with just a touch of water really opens it up. No wonder they are winning awards.

Normally I'm pretty good about my tasting notes matching those of others. And I do get the sweet and fruity nose, spicy plate, and fruity finish with a lingering spice. But I can't get beyond that all of these add up to chewing a piece of Big Red cinnamon gum. It is such a resemblance that my jaw automatically starts to chew the whisky. Very odd...but tasty.

Bought two bottles of the inaugural release after a distillery tour. The nose is so similar to the Dalmore 15 and the taste isn't far off either.Rich mouthfeel and full of flavour and character. Looking forward to future bottling.

Very Young tasting whisky; long peppery aftertaste, definitely honeyed, slight marmalade, lovely smooth mouthfeel once the water is added, unpleasant neat. Would definitely buy future mature bottlings if this initial juvenile offering is anything to go by

A superb whisky, unbelievable character considering how young it is. A true testament to the investment in ingredients and casks they use.

I have a bottle ordered but not had a chance to pick it up yet but I have sampled some of the test batch back in 2016 and it tasted wonderful then so I just had to have a bottle from the first barrel!From memory, it had a lovely treacly taste that stayed strong in the mouth. Hoping the fully matured product is even more pronounced!

I pre ordered two bottles of this whisky 4 yrs ago. Got my hand on this at the harvest festival open day. When I tasted this whisky I was totally overwhelmed . For a you whisky the taste is fantastic. I boughtba 3rd bottle on the daybto drink as the other 2 are going in storage. I have put a bet on with my wife that this whisky will win whisky of the year soon.

Tried this at their launch party. This single malt is a real corker. Fantastic fruit in the spirit and sweet notes of butterscotch. It beats my favourite Scottish (Benromach 12yo)
