Spirit of Birmingham First Single Malt Whiskey 70cl

Spirit of Birmingham First Single Malt Whiskey - Dó - a single Staffordshire oak cask - 325 (ish) bottles 

Another historic milestone for this distillery, with the launch of Spirit of Birmingham's first single malt, a single cask. 

This is a very special whiskey, for many reasons, not least the ingredients. This single malt is made from Organic Plumage Archer barley, a heritage variety grown just 43 miles from the distillery at Fir Farm; an organic, regenerative farm in the Cotswolds. The grain was traditionally floor-malted at Warminster Maltings.

Matured for 3 years & 2 months, in a hand coopered virgin Staffordshire oak cask. This special wood grew less than 40 miles from the distillery, in a sustainably managed woodland. 

This is the first single malt ever produced in their hometown of Birmingham and they couldn't be prouder of what's in the bottle & what it represents. We can’t wait for you to try it!
