Distillery branches into Europe with latest release

White Peak Distillery has announced it has started selling its whisky in Europe after announcing the release of its latest spirit.

Derbyshire’s first ever single malt whisky distillery has recently released a second expression of its Small Batch Wire Works Whisky, after receiving top industry awards for the previous batch over the summer.

It is a limited-edition distillery and trade release, with just over 4,200 bottles being made available.

But as well as the UK, the Small Batch releases will also be available in both Germany and Italy.

White Peak Distillery was founded in 2016 by husband-and-wife team Max and Claire Vaughan.

Since launching, the business has won numerous awards, not only for its whisky but also for its distillery visitor experiences and, more recently, the Wire Works Whisky packaging.

Max said: “Driving Wire Works Whisky into the international market for the first time is really exciting and hopefully the start of another part of our business.

“We are delighted to be working with new partners in Germany and Italy to help us build the brand in Europe and share our passion and whiskies with those outside of the UK.”
