"We weren’t looking for just any barrels. We wanted the rarest and most extraordinary casks we could find - not only American bourbon barrels, but also exquisite sherry and red wine casks sourced directly from producers in France and Spain. The search became an adventure in itself.
My friends at Hawkridge and I were forced - if you can call it that - into a road trip across these storied wine and sherry regions, meeting the makers, learning their stories, and selecting only the most unique and sought-after casks.
The result? A whisky that is far from ordinary. This second reserve release is the product of patience, obsession, and a deep respect for the craft. It begins with English spirit matured in rare American bourbon casks that infuse warmth, sweetness, and depth, each one chosen for its ability to add layers of rich, nuanced character. Think subtle oak, bursts of vanilla and caramel, and whispers of fruit, spice, and history. They did not disappoint!
This is more than just a bottle. It’s a statement. A limited edition, hand selected and meticulously finished spirit created for those who, like me, are always in search of something remarkable.
So whether you’re celebrating a milestone or simply taking a quiet moment for yourself, I invite you to share in this journey. Here’s to bold choices, to old-world tradition meeting new-world daring, and to a whisky made for those who demand something exceptional." - Richard Hammond.

Tasting Notes

Nose
Raisin and baked banana rise on the nose, threaded with treacle and a delicate, smoky veil. Subtle oak brings vanilla and caramel, while whispers of dried fruit and spice add depth—an inviting, aromatic prelude to the 10-year English single malt.
Palate
Ripe raisin and treacle meet baked banana on a full, unfiltered palate, carried by a delicate smoke that lingers. Vanilla- and caramel-tinged oak from rare bourbon, sherry and red-wine cask influence adds depth and subtle spice. The richness coats softly, finishing warm and persistent with a comforting, slightly sweet glow.
Finish
Raisin, treacle and baked banana rise with a delicate smoke, unfurling into a long, warming finish. The warmth lingers with vanilla, caramel and a touch of oak, a soft, luxurious sweetness that stays with you.
