Description
Plans for the Spirit of Yorkshire Distillery began in 2014, aiming to create Yorkshire's first single malt whisky. Commissioned in 2016, the distillery operates on a 'field to bottle' principle, using 100% homegrown barley from Tom Mellor's farm in Hunmanby. This Filey Bay Moscatel Finish is an English single malt whisky initially matured in 200L ex-bourbon casks before being transferred for a finishing period to 250L ex-Moscatel hogsheads sourced from Spain, which had previously held Moscatel wine for ten years. This process adds depth and layers of fruit and sweet spices to the whisky. It was launched in March 2020 as a limited edition.
