White Peak
Distillery reveals first main whisky
release of 2023 - Wire Works Whisky
Caduro.
 White Peak Distillery in Derbyshire is
this week revealing its first main 2023
release of Wire Works Whisky, just over
a year since the launch of its
award-winning single malt English
whisky.
Wire Works Caduro takes its name after a
global cable brand that was once made
onsite by Johnson & Nephew at the former
Wire Works, the home of the Distillery
since 2016. Derbyshire heritage and
provenance are at the heart of every
aspect of White Peak Distillery and its
craft spirits, and Caduro is an
extension of this strong sense of place.
Bottled at 46.8%, Caduro is a unique
vatting of Derbyshire single malt whisky
matured in a combination of American and
French oak, both first fill ex-bourbon
and White Peak’s signature STR Casks
(re-conditioned wine barriques that have
been shaved, toasted and re-charred).
The selection of STR casks, and
proportion of French oak used for Caduro
are different from previous releases,
adding extra fruit depth and intensity
to the lightly-peated spirit. As with
all White Peak spirits, every aspect of
production is done onsite at the
Distillery with nothing added during the
process and no chill-filtration.
Caduro will also be the very first Wire
Works Whisky release to be offered as a
Distillery refill for those who are keen
to enjoy their whisky and embrace the
concept of a bottle for life. Visitors
to the Distillery who bring their empty
Caduro bottle back to the Distillery
shop can enjoy a 15% refill discount. In
addition to this, the release is set to
be White Peak’s first exploration into a
potential benchmark core range product
under the Wire Works Whisky label.
A complex, approachable single malt
whisky in the Distillery’s
lightly-peated core house style. Green
apple, banana and candy cane on the
nose, with citrus zest, cereal and
tobacco on the palate, and a warm, spicy
finish with a good mouthfeel and a wisp
of smoke.
White Peak Distillery was founded seven
years ago by husband-and-wife team Max &
Claire Vaughan - both originally from
Derbyshire – and continues to go from
strength to strength. Last year saw the
Distillery winning multiple awards not
only for its whisky, but also for its
Distillery visitor experiences and the
much-celebrated Wire Works Whisky
packaging.
Max Vaughan, co-founder of White Peak
said: “Off the back of an amazing 2022
for Wire Works Whisky and having sold
out of last month’s Double Oak Port
release, we are excited to now be
sharing our first main release of 2023.
Over the past year we have been
overwhelmed by the response we’ve had
from our various communities, sector
partners and friends who have supported
us, bought our whiskies and visited us
here at the Distillery.
The launch of Caduro marks a milestone
for us a year on from our first release,
both as a development towards a
benchmark core whisky, and with a name
that is grounded in the passion and
connection we feel for our home and rich
heritage here at the Wire Works. We’re
excited for the future and hope that our
spirits continue to be enjoyed by those
who care about how their whisky is made,
where it’s made and who is making it.”
Wire Works Caduro will be available from
Friday 24th March with a RRP of £60 via
the Distillery shop and online from specialist online whisky
shops such
as
The Whisky Exchange
and
Master of Malt
