Product Information

Spirit of Yorkshire is Yorkshire's first ever single malt whisky distillery, located in Hunmanby, near Filey Bay on the Yorkshire Coast.

For Spirit of Yorkshire it is about doing things properly. That is why they're obsessed with every step of the distilling process, from grain to glass. Mentored by renowned whisky expert Dr. Jim Swan, their instinctive approach is to create a whisky that doesn't just replicate Scotch. This doesn't mean they rely on blind luck, they take the best of tradition and apply new thinking to create something unique.

All the barley used is grown in Hunmanby, on the family farm, and the water is taken from two sources, sunk deep into the chalk. The team is in control at every stage of the growing and distilling process, from choosing the variety of barley and how it is grown, right through to bottling on site at the distillery. Very few other distilleries in the UK can claim this.

Spirit of Yorkshire have invested in two of the largest Forsyth pot stills operating in the UK outside of Scotland. They also added a four-plate copper column into their process that works in tandem with the spirit still to add variance to the Spirit of Yorkshire distillery. This is all part of the commitment to combining tradition with new thinking to create something out of the ordinary. The stills were fired up for the first time in May 2016 and there are already thousands casks of various types being used, including sherry butts and bourbon casks, all of which will help create the subtle, complex flavours of the unique spirit.

Filey Bay Fino Sherry Cask Reserve #3

For the third of our annual autumn Filey Bay Sherry Cask Reserve series, Whisky Director Joe married together five Fino casks from the warehouse, three which were filled with our Pot distillate, and 2 which held our lighter column distillate.

Made from palomino grapes, Fino sherry is naturally light, dry and delicate. During maturation, the heavier and oilier nature of our more traditional pot distillate really took on the spicy, ginger notes of these casks, whilst the fruitier, lighter nature of our unique column distillate let the sweet, honey flavours sing.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Runny honey, poached apples and pears, sweet cinnamon.

Palate: Fruit cake, barley sugar, Crunchie bars, and warm oaky spice.

Finish: Peppery spice and a touch of vanilla.
