White Peak Distillery celebrates 10 Year anniversary with limited-edition Caduro X

Award-winning White Peak Distillery is marking its 10th anniversary this month with the launch of Wire Works Caduro X: a limited-edition single malt English whisky that reflects a decade of Derbyshire craftsmanship and dedication to flavour.

Founded in 2016 and based at the former Johnson & Nephew Wire Works in Ambergate, the distillery has built its reputation on a commitment to provenance, heritage and flavour. Caduro X has been created to mark this decade milestone, capturing both the distillery’s identity and the journey that has shaped it.

Inspired by Caduro from the Wire Works Provenance Core range, Caduro X is a vatting of first-fill ex-bourbon barrels and signature STR (shaved, toasted and re-charred) ex-red wine casks. This anniversary expression also incorporates both “regular-cuts” and “alt-cuts” single malts, with alternate distillation cut-points used to enhance the spirit’s brighter more tropical fruit-forward profile, alongside a subtle increase in peat influence.

To further deepen its complexity, the whisky has been proofed down to a bottling strength of 46.8% ABV using “special waters” - a technique involving the maturation of low-strength spirit in oak casks to extract additional water-soluble flavours and textures.

Only 1,000 bottles of Caduro X have been produced and will be released this month. The whisky is presented at natural colour and is non-chill filtered.

Claire Vaughan, co-founder of White Peak, says:
“Over the past ten years, we’ve taken a hands-on approach to learn more about how whisky develops its character - exploring every step from mashing & fermentation through distillation, maturation and vatting. Caduro X marks a milestone, but moreover is the evolution of these ideas. We are a small team of whisky enthusiasts, constantly exploring, testing and refining in pursuit of flavour. This mindset is at the heart of The Wire Works - a place with a 150+ year history of making, where innovation and craft go hand in hand. What’s made the journey truly special, though, is the community around us. From the very beginning, we’ve been supported by an incredible group of people who’ve believed in what we’re building. We hope the next ten years continue in that same spirit - bringing people together, sharing what we make, and always striving to do it better.”

Wire Works Caduro X Single Malt English Whisky will be available from 25th April at the Distillery and online (and from select UK retail partners including The Whisky Exchange and The Whisky Shop) RRP: £75.
