In the heart of Somerset’s rolling hills, where tradition and craftsmanship intertwine, two local icons—Somerset Spirit Co. and Butcombe Brewing Co.—have united to create a whiskey like no other.
This extraordinary spirit begins with Butcombe’s award-winning ales, crafted from the finest Maris Otter barley. The beer is then distilled at Somerset Spirit Co.’s artisanal distillery, transforming it into a rich, malty new-make spirit that captures the essence of Butcombe’s distinctive flavours and the character of the West Country.
Aged to perfection in hand-selected casks that once held Butcombe’s robust stouts and ales, the whiskey absorbs the deep, roasted notes of beer-soaked wood. The result is a complex profile layered with toffee, dark chocolate, and a subtle hoppy bitterness.
Butcombe Barrel Whiskey is a celebration of Somerset—a harmonious fusion of bold beer character and refined whiskey depth. Whether savoured neat, over ice, or shared in a quiet toast, it embodies the spirit of the land and the traditions that make the West Country unique.
Crafted by two Somerset legends, this is more than just a whiskey; it’s a tribute to the people, the place, and the passion behind it.
