Penderyn Icons of Wales #11 – Patagonia

Distilled in the heart of Wales, Penderyn Patagonia is a unique single grain whisky matured initially in ex-bourbon barrels before a finishing period in Malbec casks sourced directly from Argentina’s famed Patagonia wine region. This imparts a distinctive blush hue and a flavour profile brimming with red fruit notes – think ripe cherries and plums – alongside subtle hints of vanilla and oak. The spirit’s Welsh origins are beautifully interwoven with Patagonian influence, creating a smooth, approachable whisky with a surprisingly complex finish. Expect a warm, inviting sweetness balanced by a delicate spice, a testament to the journey of both grain and grape.
