The English Whisky Co. Named As Best Whisky Maker In Europe!

November 5, 2014 by Gary Leave a Comment

Chapter 14

Chapter 14

The English Whisky Co. has collected 15 Liquid Gold’s in Jim Murray’s 2015 Whisky Bible.

Continuing their year on year award winning streak, the company has produced the best whisky in Europe, their Chapter 14, according to Jim Murray, author of the famous Whisky Bible which was released earlier this week.

In what must be a blow to some of the world’s traditional distilling nations The English Whisky Co. not only produced the winning European whisky but also produced a further 14 whiskies that were deemed worthy of the coveted “Liquid Gold” Award which is presented only to whiskies scoring 94 points or higher each year.

Andrew Nelstrop, owner of The English Whisky Co. said, “I am thrilled that our whiskies are getting such recognition.

Our distillers do a tremendous job creating some of the world’s finest whiskies by complete dedication to ensuring perfection is achieved at every point of production, from sourcing the finest barley to bottling the whisky by hand at the distillery”

Chapter 14 is a classic single malt whisky, matured in ex- bourbon casks.
This limited edition whisky is bottled in small batches created form the marriage of just 4 casks for each bottling. Each cask is sampled and chosen by David Fitt, the head distiller, to create a delightfully balanced and gentle whisky full of flavour and character.
Chapter 14 is available at both 46% and cask strength.

About The English Whisky Co.

The Nelstrop family have a 600 year old tradition of growing and processing grain. In 2005 they decided to build a distillery and make their own whisky, this would be England’s first whisky distillery in over 100years. The best barley is grown in Norfolk and the Breckland water is superb.
In December 2006 they were able to make the first 29 barrels of English whisky and in 2007 the distillery was officially opened by HRH Prince Charles.
The English Whisky Company distills four days a week, for 44 weeks of the year, which produces around 150,000 bottles of whisky.

Their whiskies fit into 4 ranges:

Black Range: New to the stable but designed for the Export market and UK multiple retailers. Simpler labelling makes for an easier brand awareness and purchase choice for customers. Available as Classic or Peated in 43%.

Chapter Range: The core range, each chapter is a different style whisky. The label incorporates lots of details from cask types to bottling and distilling dates. Very small batch bottlings.

Founders Private Cellar: Single cask bottlings. When they find a truly remarkable cask, they will consider one of these rare bottlings. Produced in batches of less than 300, these single cask bottlings are drawn straight from the cask and bottled at cask strength. Presented with certificate of authenticity, numbered decanteurs all in a beautiful polished wooden box.

Royal Range: A unique range of bottles produced to commemorate Royal occasions. Highly collectable and sought after.
