The English Original
The English Original is our ‘at home anywhere’ whisky - a remarkably easygoing, unpeated single malt that will wow you with its exceptional balance, making this expression a favourite for first-timers and whisky lovers alike.
The casks
Specially selected ex-bourbon casks bring subtle sweet & spicy notes, a richness on the nose and roundness on the palate
The nose
Gentle yet unmistakable, with notes of vanilla and tropical fruits
The palate
A beautiful balance of nuts, chocolate and zesty citrus that melts in the mouth
The finish
Long and rich with malted barley - clean, dry, with the barest hint of salt
Good to know
Non-chill filtered. Natural colouring.
