Filey Bay Yorkshire Day 2025 Yorkshire Single Malt Whisky

Valentina Ricci — Solid but not a showstopper

7/10

Picked this up out of curiosity more than anything. It's well made — clean spirit, decent complexity with some malt and dried fruit notes. I just expected a bit more depth for a cask strength release at that price point. Would happily drink it again but wouldn't rush to rebuy.

Jorge Castillo — Great neat sipper

8/10

I've been following Filey Bay for a while now and this Yorkshire Day bottling is up there with their best. Rich and warming at 55%, I get caramel, a touch of smoke, and something almost biscuity on the finish. Poured it for a mate who's a committed Scotch drinker and even he was nodding along.

Hannah Brooks — Good but pricey for what it is

7/10

Nice enough dram — warming spice, a bit of vanilla, some coastal saltiness that I assume comes from the Yorkshire location. But at nearly £95 I keep thinking I could grab a solid Scotch single malt for less. Added a few drops of water and it opened up nicely though.

Sibel Nur — English whisky is having a moment

9/10

I bought this specifically because of the Yorkshire Day release and I'm so glad I did. The nose is all baked apple and toffee, and at cask strength it just coats your palate beautifully. One of the best things I've tried from an English distillery, full stop.

Natalie Ford — Proper Yorkshire spirit

8/10

Had this neat at a tasting event and it really impressed me. At 55% ABV it's got serious punch but there's a lovely honey and orchard fruit sweetness underneath. For a relatively young English distillery, Filey Bay are putting out some cracking whisky.
