The English Small Batch: First Fill Bourbon Cask

A Masterclass in Purity: The Essence of American Oak

Discover the "vibrant energy" of Norfolk’s finest with The English Small Batch First Fill Bourbon Cask. Distilled in February 2016 and bottled in May 2021, this single malt has spent its formative years in the "perfect conditions" of 1st Fill American Oak barrels. Because these casks haven't been used for whisky before, they are "positively brimming" with wood influence, "transforming" the spirit into a "modern masterpiece" of creamy, buttery indulgence.

This small batch release is "engineered" for those who appreciate a "clean and crisp" profile that doesn't compromise on depth. It is a "bold statement" of what happens when "high-energy" distillation meets "stunning and functional" wood management. With an "unwavering commitment" to quality, this expression is the "perfect solution" for a "sophisticated charm" that "stands the test of time."
