The English Whisky Co VE Day 80th Anniversary

About this spirit

This landmark bottle of single malt whisky commemorates the 80th anniversary of VE-Day on May 8th, with its launch on April 23rd, 2025. In a special collaboration for the second year running with the Norfolk charity Walking With The Wounded, this incredibly significant bottling marks the 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War. Crafted with care, this exceptional whisky has been expertly aged in a perfect marriage of first-fill ex-bourbon and virgin oak casks. This precise cask selection enriches the spirit with a complex and deeply satisfying flavour profile, revealing notes of sweet sticky toffee, crisp apples and pears, milk chocolate, brown sugar, and a gentle hint of ginger on the palate. It culminates in a crisp, fresh, and oaky finish. The nose is equally enticing, with aromas of sweet toffee, ripe bananas, and burnt sugar mingling with soft tropical fruits, vanilla sponge, a hint of pepper, and rich honeycomb. Beyond its exceptional quality, this is a charity bottling with a profound purpose. £2 from every bottle sold will be donated directly to Walking With The Wounded, a wonderful organisation that leads the way in providing 1-2-1 support to UK ex-servicemen and women in their recovery. Each bottle purchased directly contributes to helping those who have served. Presented in a beautiful decanter, this limited edition release of only 3,000 bottles is a true keepsake of a momentous occasion. Distilled by England's oldest registered whisky distillery, a pioneering and independent family business born from a dream to create world-class English whisky, this spirit embodies their vision of exceptional spirits made for sharing. Their distillery, nestled above a source of sweet, mineral-rich Norfolk water used since 2006, reflects their deep roots in the local soil. This approachable yet world-class whisky, a 2024 award winner, is crafted the right way, without gimmicks, and is made for sharing and savouring.
