The Cotswolds Distillery Single Malt Whisky
The Cotswolds Distillery Single Malt Whisky is the first to be created in the Cotswolds ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’ and is made using only Cotswolds-grown barley. The inaugural whisky is rich and fruity in style; it is matured in a combination of first-fill, ex-Bourbon barrels and specially shaved, toasted and re-charred red wine casks. The young expression bursts with notes of honey and butterscotch, layered with light fruits (peaches, apricots) and a hint of marzipan. To taste, the whisky is rich with malt, oils and dark sugar. Spice and caramelised bitter orange lead into a long, resinous finish with dark red fruits and a hint of treacle.
Awarded Gold at the International Wine & Spirit Competition 2019.

Founder’s Choice Single Malt Whisky
Founder’s Choice Single Malt Whisky: This cask strength release from the Cotswolds Distillery comes from the Founder, Dan’s, favourite casks: shaved, toasted and re-charred American Oak red wine barriques. These uniquely active casks give a rich and intense maturation to the distillery’s fruity spirit, offering toffee, oak and red fruits, and a beautiful, deep colour.
Awarded Best English Single Malt 2019 by the World Whiskies Awards
