Recipe notes

This Whisky Sour Recipe is courtesy of Cotswolds Distillery.

Cotswolds Signature Single Malt Whisky was launched in October 2017 as the first whisky ever distilled in the Cotswolds.

Made with locally grown Cotswolds barley, it is matured in a combination of STR (Shaved, Toasted and Re-charred) ex-red wine casks and first-fill ex-Bourbon barrels.

The result is a rich, fruity and approachable single malt, with notes of honey, Seville orange marmalade and dark red fruits.
