THE WHISKEY
Taking locally sourced to a whole new level, our Forgan Corn Whiskey is made from Lancashire corn that grows 3 meters (that's about 10 feet in old money) from the boundary of our distillery! A delicious corn (bourbon) whiskey, the recipe for which was passed down to me by a friend from West Virginia near the Appalachian Mountains.
THE FINE PRINT
The corn is fermented in Scottish highland mineral water with sugar and yeast for around 3-4 weeks before being cleared and distilled to create 69%ABV “white-dog”, our Forgan Corn Whiskey goes on quite the journey. Watered down from its potent state to the required strength with the highland mineral water, before being barrelled in charred virgin American white oak for aging - we do all our own charing.
Whiskey connoisseurs will pick up delicious notes of vanilla and caramel with oak, which comes from the wood, and a varying level of subtle sweetness, which comes from the corn and some smoke. All of our whiskeys are 100% natural, there are no artificial flavourings or colours.
We try to be unique, so all of our bottles are hand numbered, so if there is a special number you want I will try to accommodate, but please bear in mind it is first come, first served. Bottle 1 of each batch is available to bidders, should you be interested.
THE COMPANION
Like with all fine whiskeys, you can’t quite beat sipping it at room temperature. However, if you do wish to accompany your whiskey with something else it's excellent in a Manhattan or Old Fashioned.
