What started as a dream and a ‘what if’  has developed into one of the leaders of the English Whisky movement, a now globally recognised whisky region boasting over 55 distilleries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDan, with a background in finance, fell in love with whisky during his time in Paris, fueled by attending regular tastings at La Maison du Whisky.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEventually, the allure of The Cotswolds drew him away from finance, and with his whisky passion and his ‘what if’ in his head, he set out to make his mark. He’d previously bought a cask of whisky with some friends from Bruichladdich distillery, and conversations about his dream with the then-Master Distillery, Jim McEwan led him to Harry Cockburn, former distillery manager at Bowmore,  and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/scotchwhisky.com\/magazine\/in-depth\/12859\/obituary-dr-jim-swan-1941-2017\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eDr Jim Swan\u003c\/a\u003e - a legendary whisky scientist and distillation expert. Following the mantra of 'if you’re going to do something you’ve never done before, do it with the best,' Harry and Dr Jim joined him on his quest, and in 2014, The Cotswolds Distillery opened its doors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e'Don't make a spirit that needs ageing, make a spirit that needs amplifying,' was one of Dr Jim Swan's guiding principles, and it echoes in every drop crafted at the Cotswolds Distillery.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result? A fruity, eau-de-vie-like spirit, achieved through a super long 92-hour fermentation and a meticulously high heart cut from their spirit still. Heading this up today is \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cotswoldsdistillery.com\/blogs\/news\/the-beauty-and-art-of-blending\"\u003eAlice Pearson\u003c\/a\u003e, their cool and incredibly talented Whisky Distillery Manager whose vision for whisky creation and flavour has led to the release of some must-try whiskies recently, including, the self-named ‘The Alice’.  Someone you want to try and meet when you visit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eLeft to mature for a minimum of three years in oak casks, their whisky finds a sweet spot when aged in ex-bourbon and STR casks (shaved-toasted-re-charred red wine casks), a Dr Jim Swan special.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen wandering through their warehouses you may spot other casks too - that’s because Alice and the team are keen to explore how this fruity new-make would develop in other cask types. Some of these are given centre stage in their 'Hearts \u0026amp; Crafts' series  – a yearly limited edition series celebrating The Cotswolds' Arts \u0026amp; Crafts movement. One we particularly love is their recent Banyuls cask release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eStep through the doors of the distillery, and your first encounter is the vibrant cafe. It's not just a cafe; it's a local epicentre for delicious food and excellent coffee.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe distillery has gone the extra mile to establish deep roots, actively contributing to the social aspect of the local community. On an environmental front, they're currently immersed in a transformative project, turning a substantial portion of their land into biodiverse wetlands. This initiative involves nurturing willow trees, reedbeds, and wildflowers – a dedicated effort to give back to the very infrastructure of the land. The Cotswolds Distillery isn't merely a whisky destination; it's a thriving community hub and a dedicated ecological steward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead more about the Cotswolds Distillery \u003ca title=\"A Guide to Cotswolds Distillery\" href=\"https:\/\/theheartcut.com\/pages\/cotswolds-distillery-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCask Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e54.3% ABV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e362 bottles available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCask: New American Oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistilled: 17\/07\/2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottled: 23\/10\/2023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is this whisky for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur English Single Malt Whisky from the Cotswolds Distillery is the perfect gift for someone who loves Single Malt's and, furthermore, wants to explore new and exciting whisky brands from around the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Heart Cut","offers":[{"title":"Bottle","offer_id":49683286294863,"sku":"THC006","price":89.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"3cl Pocket Pour","offer_id":56908461048143,"sku":"THC006PP","price":8.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0775\/3868\/9359\/files\/4_209fa6f6-ba33-4dd8-b7cc-8db48e7df735.png?v=1769478108"},{"product_id":"westward-whiskey-07","title":"#07 WESTWARD WHISKEY","description":"\u003ch3\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntroducing the #07 release from independent bottlers, The Heart Cut.  Discover our limited edition release from \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/westwardwhiskey.com\/\" title=\"Westward Whiskey | The Pinnacle of American Whiskey\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eWestward Whiskey\u003c\/a\u003e.  Discover our limited edition release from Westward Whiskey.

So it’s only natural that any distillery built in the region would draw upon techniques spanning these disciplines, and intertwine them with the wealth of local barley. Westward Whiskey did just that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 2004, the distillery crafts a distinctive American Whiskey that speaks to its origins.  Helping to position itself at the forefront of the American Single Malt movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eMiles Munroe, Master Blender for Westward Whiskey, has always wanted to make whiskey…\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e…\u003c\/strong\u003ea passion he traces back to his days managing a whiskey bar in Kansas City. It was there that his love for craft beer and whiskey came together, leading him to study at the American Brewers Guild. He became a brewer in Portland, a city known for its beer heritage, yet continued to keep his eye on the prize of making Single Malt. In 2012 he landed a job at Westward Whiskey, and has been honing his craft as an integral staple of the award-winning producer ever since.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBREWED LIKE A CRAFT ALE\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost of the Westward distilling team comes from a brewing background.  Which makes sense due to the distillery’s location in a hotbed of breweries and the shared production principles between brewing beer and crafting whiskey. As such, they focus meticulously on building flavour in the first steps of production and preserving it through distillation and maturation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNaturally, all of their barley comes from the American Northwest. After mashing, the mash undergoes a five-day fermentation at a low temperature — much longer than the norm for a Single Malt whiskey. The result is a flavourful, fruity, and floral American craft ale that serves as the beer wash for their whiskey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDistilled like a Single Malt.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTheir beer wash is distilled through two pot stills - similar to Scotch Whisky. Westward’s custom-made pot stills feature short necks, and the wash and low wines are run through at a fast rate – all designed to limit reflux. These processes have been designed to deliberately preserve and concentrate as much of the flavour built during fermentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"o-layout__item u-1\/1 u-1\/2@tab\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"home-custom__item js-sr-loaded\" data-sr-id=\"27\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"home-custom__item-content home-custom__item-content--text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"home-custom__item-text rte\"\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAged like a Bourbon.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePortland has a climate that provides the best of both Scotland and Kentucky, with long, cool winters and hot, dry summers. This temperate climate is an ideal backdrop for whiskey maturation - allowing the esters (flavor compounds) created in previous production steps to develop more complexity. All their whiskey is aged initially in charred new American White Oak barrels, with select batches destined for secondary maturation in casks that previously held Stout Beer, Pinot Noir and Rum, among others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFind out more about Westward Whiskey \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/theheartcut.com\/pages\/westward-whiskey\" title=\"A Guide to Westward Whiskey\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCask Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50% ABV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e396 bottles available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCask: New American Oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistilled: 22\/03\/2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottled: 08\/08\/2023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is this whisky for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the perfect whisky gift for someone who loves Single Malt whiskey and, furthermore, wants to explore new and exciting whiskey brands from around the world.
