The oldest registered whiskey manufacturer in England, England Distillery (TED) is a challenging and variable – which is perception, starting a completely new category 18 years ago.

Official opening in the summer of 2007. years led King Charles III (Then Prince of Vales), creating the first operational distillation in England since 1901. years. Nelstrop’s singular goal was to make a unique glad of the world class.

Despite the oldest registered Serbian whiskey manufacturer, a company-which was now led by James’ son, Andrew Nelstrop – just just came up to 18 years.

Meanwhile, the English Distillery’s cash register will take over its portfolio and an English segment as a whole to another level. Ted doubles this month: two weeks before CASK 001 makes debibut, the brand will also present a private basement of the founder of 18 years 11. September in the toast for James Nelstrop. This will be the rarest and oldest edition, however from the annual native basement of the private basement and will be limited to 174 bottles on a global and price of 395 lbs ($ 530).

A considerable collection of the cellar contains some of the oldest and most widest whiskey in the inventory of English distillery. Every year, a handful of special spoons was chosen for billing and, when ready to drink, return to the bottling distillery below the private basement sticker.

Two September initiates the main ambitious plans for the growth of English distillery retailers – indicating a new confidence air in its own brand and itself in the sector itself.

English whiskey finds affection in Asia

Export markets contribute about 30% of sales. Michael Fisher, a sales director, commented, “We strive and maintain an equal balance through exports, Great Britain and contracts. We go very well in China, Taiwan and other Asian markets, because we are still under development.” Nelstrop said that he said that equal Split could change in favor of exports, given the high taxation that the Great Britian charges alcohol.

The latest product in the range of a private basement will be the most common and oldest issue.

The current export markets of the English distiller cover more than 30 countries, including Austria, Bulgaria, Czech, Denmark, France, Finland, Germany, Norway, Slovakia and Turkie in Europe; Australia, China, Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan in Asia-Pacific and Brazil, Canada and Uruguay in America. The US strategy is to enter the state of state. Tede products are also stored through exchanging whiskey and delivered at the international level.

English whiskey moves from Niska curiosity to a global candidate, and English distillation expects to play a central role in this effort. Nelstrop says Ted’s approach is to make whiskey that are “affordable, but never acted.” He added, “We remain a family business with the aim of building a legacy, not a strategy of going out in English whiskey, and we will continue to set the standard for generations.”

So, instead of being “other” on retail shelves, Nelstrop believes that there are now enough critical masses to bring a category to life. “With more than 60 distillery, English whiskey is worthy of one’s own space,” he said. “People are much ready to try something that’s not Scotch, and we’re here for them.”
