Spirit of Yorkshire Berry Bros & Rudd - Single Cask #2237 Whisky 6 Year Old · 2017 Vintage
Out of stock
The spirit was poured into first-fill ex-bourbon wood in February 2017, then re-racked for two and a half years into rich Pedro Ximénez wood. As with many bottlings from this brilliant distillery, the joy here is the interplay between cask and barley. Unlike most whisky-makers, our friends at Spirit of Yorkshire grow all their own barley and take an immense pride in doing so. Starting from such impeccable raw material in any endeavour gives the greatest chance of success.
Here, paired with a potentially domineering ex Pedro-Ximénez Sherry cask, the rich, oily, grain sweetness is a delight. A scant few drops of water release even more sweetness alongside the opulent spice.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper highlights and mahogany undertones, a warm, reddish-gold glow.
Nose
Rich, oily barley sweetness rests beneath PX sherry fruit—raisins, dates, fig—with vanilla and toffee kissing the edges. Oak-spice threads of cinnamon and clove weave through, lending a luxurious, velvety aroma. A splash of water broadens the sweetness and spice, heightening the opulent depth.
Palate
Oily, grain-forward sweetness coats the palate, with vanilla, toffee and dried fruit from the Pedro Ximénez cask. Rich spice—cinnamon, clove, nutmeg—drifts through creamy oak, balancing the whisky’s full body. A few drops of water unlock extra sweetness and lift the spice for a velvet, lingering finish.
Finish
Long, luxurious finish where Pedro Ximénez’s rich sweetness lingers beside oily grain and toasted oak. Fig, treacle and vanilla emerge as a steady spice holds, warming the palate into a velvety aftertaste. A touch of water heightens the sweetness and silkiness, prolonging the PX-driven finish into something indulgent and enduring.
