Nestled in the verdant Derbyshire hills, Claire and Max Vaughan produce single malt whisky in the industrial setting of a former Victorian wire factory. Alongside their talented team, they use the best of traditional whisky production, while exploring the range of exciting cask types and malting techniques available in the modern era. One interesting diversion from the paradigm is their use of live brewer's yeast from nearby Thornbridge Brewery, to which they attribute some of the rich, fruity flavours inherent in their new make spirit.
Matured in a barrel left over smoke after the charring process, this whisky showcases the deliciously fruity distillate found at White Peak Distillery and pairs it with dense oak and complex smokes. Wood smoke and peat smoke delicately wisp around on both the nose and finish. Flavours of skin-on almonds, toasted spices and touches of nectarine make this a splendid Derbyshire dram.
