East of England whisky

The East of England is where the modern English whisky story started. Surrounded by some of the UK’s main malting barley fields in Norfolk and Suffolk, the region combines rich agricultural resources with coastal maritime climates.

Pioneered by The English Whisky Co at St George’s Distillery in Roudham, the first dedicated English whisky distillery in over a century, the area also includes coastal brewer-distiller Adnams in Southwold, making small-batch single malt and triple grain whiskies.
