The Norfolk - Farmers is a single grain whisky from The English Distillery in Norfolk, made using a combination of 8 different grains and matured in American oak casks. The label features a cat wearing a bowler hat, as well as the English proof of the whisky (79°), which isn't seen very often at all anymore!
Sugar-dusted pastries, apricot and Williams pear.
Drying though sweet, with milk chocolate and white pepper.
Red berries and toffee.

A weird one this; each of the 20 or so bottlings I’ve tried from this distillery have been very good and good quality…but you know that smell you get when you’re stuck in traffic behind a bin lorry? It took me ages to put my finger on it and, once identified, that’s all I get from this (which, understandably, disgusts me!). I fully appreciate this is some issue with me so I didn’t want to mark the whisky down!
I think that is a grey seal on the label, a frequent visitor to the Norfolk coastline.
It's quite unlike any other whisky I've tried. It's very smooth and creamy for what must be fairly young whisky with no noticeable cask influence. After trying a friends bottle I had to add this to my collection.
The "Single" in Single Grain means the whisky is sourced from a single distillery. "Grain" means its mashbill includes grains other than barley.
How can this be a single grain whiskey if made from a combination of 8 different grains?
