Maturing Malt Hits the Road.

On the 18th of December, our 004 Maturing Malt went on a trip with our Whisky Director to Westminster. The day was hosted at The House of Commons by Welcome to Yorkshire, showcasing some of best food and drink within God’s own county at a Taste of Yorkshire event. We had a great day talking to a few of our MP’s, they couldn’t believe that our 004 is only a two year old spirit. Needless to say our latest release was a hit with both Kevin Hollingrake, the MP of Malton and Thirsk, along with the Lord Kirkhope of Harrogate!

What are you doing on Saturday?

To celebrate 20 years of brewing, our sister brewery @WoldTopBrew is hosting an Open Day and giving you the chance to see inside. There'll be tours, beer, barley, beer, live music, beer (you get the idea). And there'll also be three talks from us about our field to bottle Filey Bay Whisky throughout the day too.

Entry is £5 and includes your first pint or soft drink. From the award-winning Scarborough Fair IPA to the 0.5% abv Intuition, there's a beer for everyone and even the sun looks set to shine.

See you on the farm!

(Tickets from the Wold Top website)

It's the final Bank Holiday in May and after a very hot week here on the coast, it feels like the gateway to summer. Over the next few months we'll be at events all across the UK (and sometimes even further afield too).

(In fact, this evening @FileyBay_Amy will be pouring and chatting all things Filey Bay at @cutyourwolfloose in Brighton. So if you're on the South Coast and fancy a dram, give them a call to see if there are any last minute tickets available.)

From the Great Yorkshire Show Food Hall (we'll be right by the Cookery Theatre) to smaller ticketed tastings at independent retailers, its always great to see and meet friends of the distillery. So please come and say hello!

Find out where we'll be on the 'Events' page of our website – we've just added the July dates on there and we'll keep it updated as news things come up.

A pretty great way to finish the first day of a (sunny and hot!) long weekend last night. Filey Bay down on the Cornish Coast.

Last week we said goodbye to the last bottles of Filey Bay STR Finish Batch #3 from the distillery. Floral and fruity, it has notes of vanilla and summer berries and is a favourite on our tours. Batch #4 is finishing in the warehouse as we speak....

Light, fruity and biscuity with notes of green apple, pear drops, lemon cake and hops, Filey Bay IPA Finish is a delicious dram for a sunny day.

Have you met Joe?

Our Whisky Director, Joe Clark, started working at the distillery in September 2016, not long after the first distillations took place. Official employee number 1 (excluding co-founders Dave and Tom), he worked closely with Dr. Jim Swan on our spirit style, recipes and defining how Filey Bay Whisky (at that point, un-named) would taste.

Working in whisky right straight from leaving school, he started at the Whisky Shop in York before heading all over the UK and further afield with the @WhiskyLounge. He's also written a couple of books (though he doesn't like to mention that...!)

When we spoke with Julia from BBC Radio York yesterday she was taken aback by the time frame... "three years! A big gamble to know that it's going to be good!" And she's right, it was a big gamble.

But Tom, Dave, Joe and Jim all said that if you work as hard as possible to use the best equipment, put the best ingredients in, and invest in great knowledge, then you stand the best chance of getting something great out at the end.
