We are delighted to announce Whittaker’s 'First Release’, double bourbon cask-aged whisky is now available.
We are offering you the unique opportunity to invest in the first ever single malt produced in the Yorkshire Dales.
Our 'First Release’ is bold, innovative and light golden in colour. On the palate you will discover creamy caramel, with spicy, nutty notes finishing with fresh vanilla, old-fashioned toffee and apricot. It is likely to become a classic and we fully expect it to be recognised as one of the finest whiskies available.
The 'First Release Package’ will contain:
The 'First Release' bottle's journey - you will notice that on your bottle label, it states Cask No R1, 2, 3 or 4. We took 4 of our oldest first fill ex-bourbon ASBs (casks 2, 3 and 4) and finished them in first fill ex-bourbon quarter casks. After sampling the whisky in the ASBs at 3 years, both the flavour and colour profiles were there, but we decided to finish the whisky in the quarter casks in order to further elevate both the colour, the flavour and accelerate the maturation.
ASB casks 2 and 3 were filled in February 2020 and ASB casks 3 and 4 were filled in April 2020. The grain used to make this whisky was a combination of Laureate and Golden Promise and the new make spirit was originally casked at 72% ABV but when finishing in the quarter casks, we tempered the spirit down to 63.5% ABV for optimal maturation in the cask.
