This privately owned Distillery in the Breacon Beacons National Park revives a whisky distilling heritage in Wales that goes back 250 years.
The unique copper still is charged daily with a specially formented single variety malted barley mash to produce a limited quantity of pure single malt spirit. This is married with spring water before being laid down to mature in American oak Bourbon barrels.
The whisky is finished in Madeira Casks to impart a generous flavour of subtle complexity.
At premium strength (46%) Penderyn has an exceptionally balanced taste with the aroma of cream toffee and fleetingly of fresh new leather. Then as the initial sensations fade, the finishing notes of tropical fruits, raisins and vanilla emerge strongly and long lasting.
