Treat your dad on Father's Day with a new limited edition Alter Ego malt whisky from Derbyshire based White Peak Distillery

Alter Ego is the latest addition to the Wire Works range of English single malts from the White Peak Distillery in Ambergate.

At 51.7% it’s a powerful drink demanding to be savoured, rather than glugged down.

The senses are infused from the moment the top comes off the bottle. My partner, a connoisseur of malt whisky, said: “It looks so clear, the aroma is divine, I could smell it all night.”

He was equally complimentary in the taste test: “It’s still got that wonderful scent in the glass and fills your mouth with that great warmth you only get with a fine malt whisky. So smooth but with a great bite that goes straight to the back of the throat.”

We tried Alter Ego neat first and then with the smallest amount of water – both tots tasted equally as good and if anything, the water magnifed the aroma.

With tropical fruit, caramel and honey flavours exciting the palate, the limited edition Alter Ego is a very special malt whisky that deserves a place in everyone’s drink cabinet.

Alter Ego is priced £65 per 70cl and available to order online at www.whitepeakdistillery.co.uk, from the shop at White Peak Distillery, The Wire Works, Matlock Road, Ambergate, email: [email protected] and from trade partners including Berry Bros. & Rudd, Master of Malt and select independents nationwide.
