Tasting Notes
The White Peak Distillery takes pride in crafting a single malt whisky that harmoniously blends the region's rich heritage with a contemporary twist. This exceptional spirit has undergone a unique finishing process, resting in casks previously used to mature an acclaimed imperial stout, Necessary Evil, from their local brewing comrades at Thornbridge Brewery. The result is a captivating symphony of flavors that pay homage to Derbyshire's storied connection to beer. On the nose, it seduces with enticing notes of espresso, chocolate-coated raspberries, smoked almonds, and toffee apples, creating a creamy and nutty aroma. The palate unveils a symphony of dark and dried fruit, enveloped in rich dark chocolate, coffee, and roasted nut undertones. The finish is a lingering embrace of sweetness, richness, and smoky nuances, leaving an indelible impression on the senses. This whisky is a testament to the distillery's commitment to celebrating local heritage through innovative and flavorful expressions.
