A complex whisky with real depth and warming spice - Filey Bay's STR finish takes the citrus and vanilin rich flavours from ex-bourbon casks and weaves them with the red fruits of the Rioja barriques.
Won a Silver medal at the International Wine & Spirits Competition 2022.
Notes of summer fruit with toasted oak and chocolate orange on the nose. To taste, it's light and floral, building towards an oaky spiciness that hints at red wine.
Distilled in 2016, this ‘field to bottle’ single malt spent years maturing in bourbon casks before transferring to be ‘finished’ in shaved, toasted and re-charred red wine barriques, which came from sunny Rioja vineyards in Spain.
Spirit of Yorkshire was launched in 2016 and is a collaboration between farmer and brewer, Tom Mellor from World Top Brewery and business partner, David Thompson.
Spirit of Yorkshire are in control of every detail at every stage of the growing and distilling process. Their barley is grown in Hunmanby, on their family farm, with the water sourced from two locations sunk deep into the chalk.
Filey Bay Moscatel Finish is The Spirit of Yorkshire's first ‘finished’ release. Expect soft, spicy and notes of warming caramalised orange and dried fruits.
The distillery's "house style" and a whisky that would please experienced palates that will notice the complex and nuanced flavours, or malt newbeies who'll apriciate its easygoing nature.
