ST.
GEORGE'S DISTILLERY
The distillery produced its first 'run' on 12th December 2006 and it was with much excitement and with an enormous sense of achievement that we filled the first barrel of 'St. George's whisky'. We now produce on average 13 casks a week, building up a good stock of delicious English Malt Spirit. Our Spirit has to sit in barrels for 3 years before it can be called 'whisky'.
Our online shop became available in July 2008 selling a selection of unusual whisky and many of our other great merchandise. The gift shop is stocked with some great gifts, beautiful glassware and St.George's merchandise along with a comprehensively stocked whisky shop. We have whiskies from around the world; the furthest afield is Milford, a very easy to drink New Zealand whisky that is no longer in production; some Japanese contenders, Indian, American, etc - You get the picture. Obviously vastly out numbering all the others is our selection of scotch. We have tried to avoid the norm; and therefore we have ended up with a large selection of single cask whiskies, as well as single malts. We have found the most interesting and unique come from the independent bottlers. All in, we stock approximately 180 different whiskies ranging in price from £17 to £250. We have nearly every age of whisky in stock. Very easy to find the perfect birthday presents.
You can also join a fantastic tour, (one leaves every hour, or more if there is demand) explaining all about the whisky making process finishing with some tasting of our great new liqueurs and creams, which are now available to purchase in the gift shop. Now that the Distillery doors have opened we will be spending some time landscaping outside where you will be able to walk amongst the willows down to the banks of the Thet and enjoy the tranquility of the river.
The distillery sits
on the banks of the river Thet just off the A11 between
East Harling and Roudham on the B1111.
The malt spirit is now developing a rich mustard colour, the flavour and smell are exceptional. The special edition, first release will be ready for Christmas 09, we have now sold out of this special release but you can now order our limited edition peated whisky. Everybody else will have to wait for 2010.
