Spirit of Yorkshire Distillery, Filey Bay, Porter Cask Finish, Batch #1, Single Malt Whisky, England (50%)
- World Whisky
Description
This is another in Spirit of Yorkshire’s beer- and whisky-cask finishings series. Oak barrels were used to mature a special edition of Marmalade Porter from Wold Top (their sister brewery), and then afterwards, it was used to mature this whisky. The intriguingly pale colour does not indicate the whisky’s rich, toasty malt, red apple and candied peel character.

About this spirit
Spirit of Yorkshire Distillery
Barley
Barley is a key ingredient in the production of some of the world's most renowned spirits, particularly whiskey and Scotch whisky. Malted barley is used as the primary grain in many single malt and blended Scotch whiskies, where it contributes a distinct malty, nutty, and sometimes smoky flavour profile. In addition to Scotch, barley is also a staple in the production of Irish whiskey, where it often lends a smoother, creamier taste. The versatility of barley as a grain makes it a favorite for creating complex and deeply nuanced spirits cherished by enthusiasts worldwide.
