Wire Works Heritage Chevallier

70cl / 57.30% - Wire Works Heritage Chevallier marks two firsts for White Peak Distillery. It is the distillerys first unpeated single malt and its first whisky made with heritage Chevallier barley, a variety that dominated English fields from the 1820s through to the 1920s before modern yield chasing pushed it aside. Here, the team has let the grain do the talking, maturing the spirit in less active first-fill bourbon barrels to spotlight Chevalliers muscular malt character rather than smother it in oak. The result is a rare contemporary take on a barley once synonymous with English brewing and distilling.
