Product description
The Adnams Brewery was founded in 1872 in Southwold, Suffolk, on an estate where beer had been produced since 1396. In 2010, the company built a small distillery, the Adnams Cooper House Distillery, and began producing gin, vodka and whisky.
The first two whiskies won top honors at the International Wine & Spirits Competition in 2013 and 2014, respectively. Adnams Single Malt debuted in 2013 as a forerunner of a series of limited editions. The small batch version presented here is a whisky distilled in a copper still from locally grown barley and aged in virgin French oak barrels for four years.
