Celebrating 10 Years of Yorkshire Single Malt Whisky

Exactly ten years ago today, history was made here in Yorkshire.

On the 14th June 2016 the day we filled our first ever cask of new make spirit. Cask 001 has been maturing in the warehouse ever since (untouched).

But where did it all start? ​It all goes back to a conversation in 2011. Best friends Tom and Dave were chatting over a pint: “We’ve got barley on the farm, we’ve got our own water, and we already make great beer.” Whisky was the next logical step.

Five years of hard work later, on the 14th June 2016, Co-Founders David Thompson and Tom Mellor officially filled our first ever cask of new make spirit. ​Cask 001 certainly paved the way for the Filey Bay single malt we are so proud to share with you today.
