Tasting Notes

Colour

Golden amber with sunlit honey tones and coppery glints.

Nose

Griddled fresh pineapple dusted with vanilla icing sugar, banana foam sweets, buttery shortbread, toasted oats and demerara sugar-topped custard tarts.

Palate

On the palate, a tropical fruit chorus rides the big rum influence: creamy rum truffles with demerara-sugar mocha, touched by cinnamon dust and a zing of waxy lime. Spiced lemon curd and sappy vanilla oak weave through, while peppery almond milk lends a dry, lifted finish.

Finish

Long and indulgent, the finish blends rum baba with pineapple chunks and bright green apple, shaded by vanilla icing, dusted with sugared almonds, and crowned by a playful, fizzy pick-and-mix spice that lingers.

The English
Pioneers of English Whisky Making - When The English founders built the distillery at the Norfolk site, they chose a spot directly above a source of sweet, mineral-rich water; the same water that’s made their whisky every day since 2006. Norfolk’s microclimate is optimal for barrel ageing, with clean air, mild winters, and dry summers. Every drop of ‘The English’ is aged in carefully selected barrels onsite.
