\n Cotswolds Distillery, producers of the world’s best-selling English single malt whisky, is releasing 1,200 bottles in The Harvest Series celebrating the Cotswolds countryside.\n<\/p>\n
\n Cotswolds Round Hill Harvest Single Malt Whisky is the fifth expression in the Cotswolds Distillery\u2019s Harvest series, marrying ex-maple syrup casks with Spanish oak Oloroso hogsheads, balanced by a subtle hint of peat.\n<\/p>\n
\n It is now available from the Cotswolds Distillery website and their three shops, one of which is at the distillery itself in Shipston-on-Stour, Warwickshire.\n<\/p>\n

\n The yearly limited-edition series sees the Cotswolds Distillery collaborating with local artists to create memorable gift tubes decorated with paintings of the Cotswolds countryside.\n<\/p>\n
\n This fifth expression, decorated with a painting by Cotswolds artist Jeffrey Pratt, depicts Round Hill, near Traitor\u2019s Ford, which inspired founder Dan Szor to establish Cotswolds Distillery after he saw fields of golden barley growing near his house.\n<\/p>\n
\n This latest release is luxuriously rich and full-bodied and delivers layers of deep sweetness, light notes of orchard fruit and a touch of smoke with a long, lingering finish.\n<\/p>\n
\n Bottled at a strength of 55 per cent ABV, its bold, distinctive character reflects the atmosphere and artistry of Jeffrey\u2019s Cotswolds landscape painting, which inspired Cotswolds Distillery whisky maker Alice Pearson to choose and marry together these distinctive casks.\n<\/p>\n

\n Jeffrey said: “Having lived in Swerford for over 35 years, my love for this less developed area of the Cotswolds has continued to grow.\n<\/p>\n
\n “The fields are small, undulating and intimate, compared to the vast wolds beyond Stow.\n<\/p>\n
\n “Autumn is my favourite time of the year to paint because green gives way to gold and blue.”\n<\/p>\n
\n Alice added: “I was inspired by the use of colour and the expressiveness of Jeffrey\u2019s painting.\n<\/p>\n

\n “I find that many landscapes can have a subdued and calm feel, but this painting has an injection of fun and wonder which is supported by the composition as well as the use of flashes of bright colour.\n<\/p>\n
\n “I wanted to make a whisky which reflects this, one that combines careful, technical composition with a splash of unpredictability and a relaxed, fun feel.”\n<\/p>\n
\n Tasting notes for the new tipple say that for the nose there are malt loaf, sweet maple aromas and caramelised white chocolate.\n<\/p>\n
\n For the palate and finish, malt loaf and salted caramel lead the way, with sweet herbal notes and candied pecans lingering on the finish.\n<\/p>\n
\n The price is set at \u00a3110 for a 70cl bottle, and it is available to buy exclusively online from the Cotswolds Distillery website, the distillery shop and its two satellite stores in Broadway and Bourton-on-the-Water.\n<\/p>\n
