A welcome return to Suffolk’s brewery/distillery for our second batch of Adnams single malt whisky. This release has spent it’s time maturing a second fill French Oak cask, followed by an Islay Cask finish, so while not a smoky malt in itself, the ex-Islay cask brings a smoky dimension to this English malt. Adnams is a long established brewery with a colourful history of over a century in the making. Their Copper House distillery was opened in 2010 and was the first brewery to be legally distilling spirits in the UK. Their first whisky was bottled in December 2013
