Founded in 2017 by a family of distillers, with a goal of producing craft spirits the traditional way; in a copper pot still on open flame. Launching with Gin, Rum and Vodka and offering premium bespoke spirit and white labelling production; all in the pursuit of, one day, being able to produce our own Single Malt Whisky.
Laying down Single Malt Whisky casks since 2021, our single barrel approach means we are able to experiment with heritage grains, yeast strains, brewing techniques and cask selection; whilst still retaining our full bodied, fruit forward identifying character of our spirt.
August 10th 2024 we bottled the regions first ever Single Malt Whisky, Bottle 1 Cask 1. This bottling a symbol of our first ever Whisky. Although you will have to wait a little longer for our first proper release you will be able to see this first ever bottling in pride of place in our Whisky HQ upon opening early 2025
Nearly a decade in the making and 3 years maturing, the first ever Whiksy made in the county of West Midlands. This celebbratory bottling, a symbol of this achievement will stand proud in our Whisky HQ Visitor Centre which opens later this year.

Our four 100% Copper Pot Stills; Doris, Lenny, Patricia and Sharon, named after members of our family, create Single Malt Whisky, Rum, Gin and Vodka.
Sourcing 100% English Barley from dedicated farms and traditionally floor malted for exceptional taste is how our journey starts. From there we mash, brew and ferment in small batches whilst experimenting with a variety of yeast strains to produce the full bodied fruit forward character of our new make spirit.
Our spirit is then matured in a variety of virgin, first fill and second fill casks to perfectly pair and complement the spirit. We also use a variety of cask sizes, typically smaller than the industry norm to impart a greater flavour to our maturing spirit.
Our first Whisky was bottled August 10th 2024, celebrating the regions first ever Whisky. Our first release is currently planned for July 11th 2025, our past Matriarchs birthday.
Our new make is the culmination of decades of experimentation with the sole goal of making the best new make spirit to age into our Whisky.
We use heritage malts, speciality yeasts, long fermentations, direct fired copper still, extreme low yielding cut points with heads cuts on both Wash and Spirit Run and we don't even run Tails... we just flame out.
Yes it's innificient, takes too long, costs too much, requires massive amounts of labour and limits our output at every turn.
But, since when has efficinency, in any crafted product, not often been at the detriment of quality.
From our home at The West Midlands Distillery we craft a range of Multi Award Winning Spirits and Liqueurs including: Rum, Gin, Vodka and Whisky ( 2024). We source the finest responsibly produced ingredients and botanicals from around the Globe to handcraft premium bespoke Spirits, as well as growing a selection from our Distillery Garden.
We create a range of brands, as well as over 50 Custom Bespoke Spirits for other brands and customers such as: brand owners, retailers, restaurants, hotels, pub co's etc.
