A real rarity for the whisky lovers, we’ve worked together with Filey Bay to select a single barrel exclusive to Harvey Nichols. Aged in Ex Moscatel casks and limited to less than 50 cases ever made, this is a whisky not to be missed!
Taking on the notes of the Moscatel cask, this whisky is soft and fruity with the perfect balance of flavours; think candied fruits, gingerbread, honeycomb and citrus and a rich lingering finish. A truly decadent dram, this is a special whisky to enjoy over the Christmas period.
The Spirit of Yorkshire Distillery can be found in the village of Hunmanby just a few miles from Filey Bay on the Yorkshire coast. It’s the county’s first ever Single Malt Whisky producer and they do things properly from grain to glass but definitely their own way. But they did get a little help from the late great Dr Jim Swan a celebrated whisky maker who was described as “the Einstein of whisky” and who was instrumental in setting up a raft of other great distilleries including Nc’nean Cotswolds Kavalan Penderyn Kilchoman Victoria Caledonian and Milk & Honey. He helped them ensure that they were making something unique that reflected the local area not just a carbon copy of Scotch. The barley is grown in Hunmanby on the family farm so you can’t get much more local and hands on than that. The water is drawn through chalk from deep beneath the Yorkshire Wolds. One of the only things they bring in from outside the county is the oak for which they source the finest barrels from around the world. The bottles are embossed with a gannet a fearless bird that has flourished in this part of Yorkshire. We think that’s kind of fitting because it also perfectly describes the way we hungrily gobble down each new Filey Bay outturn.
