Wire Works Necessary Evil Finish 2025 Single Malt 70cl (Batch #3)

Wire Works Necessary Evil Finish 2025 Single Malt 70cl (Batch #3)

Wire Works Whisky Necessary Evil Finish 2025 Release is a limited-edition dual maturation of White Peak Distillery's lightly peated single malt.Initially matured in ex-bourbon barrels, the whisky is then finished in casks that previously held Necessary Evil - a bold imperial stout brewed just up the road by the exceptional Thornbridge Brewery.

2025’s edition is a true Derbyshire collaboration, layering local provenance and
character. The finishing casks began life with Wire Works whisky in them, before going on to mature Necessary Evil stout.

Limited run of just 2457 bottles. Masters medal at the World Whisky Masters 2025, the competition’s highest honour.
