Tasting Notes

Filey Bay Double Oak #1, Special Release, is a distinctive and unusual single malt, created by maturing our single malt whisky in both ex-bourbon and virgin oak casks. The virgin oak brings fruity and spicy notes, whilst the ex-bourbon casks balance this with vanilla and toffee flavours.
Making the cut. The selection process started with sampling a cross-section of first-fill ex-bourbon casks laid down in the winter of 2017-2018. From a potential 150 casks, only a handful was selected, all highlighting key characteristics that we felt would work well with the new oak casks.

Balancing old with new with such new and active oak, the casks needed sampling, nosing and tasting frequently to ensure balance was maintained in the overall whisky. Our Whisky Director Joe was checking these casks monthly at first, then week by week, as their influence on the whisky grew.

  • STORY BEHIND

    The Name

    Our local area is hugely important to us and so naturally it’s where we’ve found the name for our Single Malt: Filey Bay. We see the sea and the curve of the bay from the distillery window. We had lists of names but we just kept coming back to this.

    Our

    Bottle

    Our bespoke bottle brings together the textures of the farm, the soil, the beach and the sky. Pick it up, look closely underneath and you'll see a secret phrase... "Proudly Made of Yorkshire." Because it is.
