White Peak Wire Works Caduro Cask Strength English Single Malt Whisky is a single malt whisky bottled at 58%. It positions itself within the Single Malt tradition, and first acquaintance suggests a spirit that knows its lineage.
For this cask strength release, lightly peated single malt was aged in a combination of first-fill ex-bourbon barrels and STR casks.
The Verdict
I have scored this 8/10. It is a competent single malt that delivers the core qualities one expects from the style at a reasonable price point. A reliable choice for the whisky cabinet.
Best Served
Neat, at room temperature, in a Glencairn glass. If you wish to open it up, add a few drops of water — no more. This is a whisky that speaks for itself when given the space to do so.
