Why It’s On Our Shelves
Peaty, coastal & unmistakably bold
Produced in Norfolk by English Whisky →
English Smokey is The English Whisky Company’s beautifully balanced interpretation of a peated single malt — crafted at St George’s Distillery in Norfolk using locally grown barley, pure Breckland water and traditional copper pot stills. Matured in carefully selected casks that complement the character of the spirit, this whisky delivers a refined smokiness that is bold yet approachable.
On the nose, expect soft campfire smoke, toasted oak and hints of vanilla and sweet malt. The palate opens with gentle peat warmth before developing into rich cereal notes, subtle spice, citrus lift and a smooth, lingering finish. The smoke is present but never overpowering — elegant, rounded and perfect for those who enjoy whisky with depth, structure and a touch of the dramatic.
English Smokey beautifully showcases what English whisky can achieve: complexity without harshness, richness without heaviness, and a clean, bright finish shaped by Norfolk’s calm climate and expert distillation.
Ideal for peat lovers and newcomers alike, this is a whisky that shines whether sipped neat, enjoyed by the fire or used to elevate classic cocktails with a subtle smoky twist.
