Cotswolds 'Signature' Single Malt Whisky

The aroma is sweetly honeyed, with butterscotch and plenty of fruit - stonefruits fresh and stewed, along with nutty marzipan. The palate is oily, lush and rich, with orange marmalade, muscavado or brown sugar and tannins, bringing a twist of cracked black pepper. The finish is treacled, with dark red fruit and soft wooded flavours lingering. A truly excellent whisky from England made with great passion and craft.

The first whisky ever made in the Cotswolds, the distillery's award-winning Cotswolds Signature Single Malt Whisky is crafted using the finest locally grown, traditionally floor-malted Cotswold barley. Belonging to Cotswold's Classics Collection, their Signature Single Malt favours the rich and bold, fruity notes which result from maturation in our highly active STR (Shaved, Toasted and Re-charred) ex-red wine barriques. Blended with whisky matured in premium first-fill ex-Bourbon barrels, this single malt has notes of honey, red fruits and a hint of treacle.

The Cotswolds Distillery was founded in 2013 by Dan Szor in Stourton in the heart of the Cotswolds, inspired by his passion for single malt whisky. Making their home in an old barn conversion, Dan had his stills build by Forsyths in Rothes - the wash still is named Proud Mary and the spirit still is named Janis. The first release from the Cotswolds Distillery was Cotswolds Dry Gin, which made its way to our shelves in late 2014. A few years later, in 2017, the very first whisky from the Cotswolds Distillery (as well as the very first single malt whisky distilled in the Cotswolds) was released - and has been very well received, picking up a Gold medal at the World Whiskies Awards 2019 and a Liquid Gold Award in Jim Murray's Whisky Bible.
