To mark His Majesty The King Charles III’s Coronation, Highgrove Gardens have created a very special release of single malt whisky with the Cotswolds Distillery, the award-winning distillery located in the Cotswolds area of outstanding natural beauty. This rich and fruity whisky has been created using Plumage Archer barley grown on the Highgrove Estate and was distilled, matured, and bottled in the Cotswolds. Limited to just 340 bottles, this unique release comes from a specially selected shaved, toasted, and re-charred ex-red wine cask. This highly active cask gives a rich and intense maturation to the fruity new make spirit, offering strong notes of toffee, chocolate, and red fruits, as well as a beautiful deep colour. The whisky has a commemorative Coronation label and is presented in a bespoke box to mark this historic occasion. The cask was filled in May 2017 and bottled in March 2023. 

Tasting notes for the coronation cask 

  • Nose: baked pears, nutmeg, treacle
  • Palette: toasted oak, cacao, candied orange
  • Finish: sweet, rich, touch of clove spice
