Description
White Peak (Wireworks) 2018 – Cask 2018-16
Only the 16th cask ever filled at the distillery!
We’ve long admired White Peak for their thoughtful approach to whisky-making – particularly their use of brewers’ yeast, which we believe adds depth, character, and complexity to the spirit. The team’s meticulous attention to detail and that vital human touch throughout production shine through in the quality of their whisky.

1st Fill Ex-Bourbon / 247 bottles
57.1% ABV
Artwork by: KMG
Nose: Opens green and bright, reminiscent of an excellent mezcal – notes of green pepper, lime zest, and fresh lime juice. The smoke is elegant and harmonious, lending balance, salinity, and coastal nuances of crushed shells and weathered driftwood. With water, more citrus emerges – lemon and grapefruit peel, perhaps a touch of lemon curd. Hints of smoked almonds (the good ones!) and salted peanut brittle add richness.
Palate: Neat, the peat comes to the fore – salty, mineral, with a touch of iodine and hessian. A splash of water brings forward more citrus, echoing the nose. Subtle notes of smoked ham, cockles, and seashells develop, maintaining a refined and balanced profile throughout.
Finish: Dry and textured, with grist, hessian, lemon zest, and a whisper of ground ginger.
