The Lakes Distillery – Steel Bonnets (70cl, 46.6%)

The Lakes Distillery – Steel Bonnets is a whisky from The Lakes Distillery. Bottled at 46.6% ABV, 70cl. Originally founded by Paul Currie, the Lakes Distillery is situated in the Lake District (as the name would suggest) as part of a converted old Victorian cattle farm and it takes its inspiration from the stunning landscape that surrounds it. The technology and hardware are state-of-the-art but the methods are as traditional as always in what they call a “holistic whisky making” process. This set contains a cross-border blend of English and Scottish malt whiskies named ‘Steel Bonnets’ to honour the memory of the people who lived in the Border Marches of England and Scotland during the 13th to 17th centuries.
