Whisky from the South West of England?! Oh yes! The Dartmoor Distillery has gone and made its very own single malt whisky, under the watchful eye of master distillery Frank McHardy (who has previously worked at Springbank and Bushmills!). The whisky is made with barley grown at Preston Farm, Dartmoor, and malted at the famous Warminster Maltings. While those two aspects are very South West, the still used to make the whisky comes from further afield, coming all the way from Cognac! This particular expression was matured in bourbon casks, imparting soft fruity sweetness to the spirit.
Fresh pear and peach, with helpings of earthy barley and hay.
Malty and light, though with a touch of oiliness to it. Vanilla and quince stick around.
A fleeting hint of smoke, eclipsed by citrus, crunchy brown sugar and desiccated coconut.
