The Lakes Distillery
Says it began 2014
At The Lakes Distillery we believe in taking the lead and following our instinct. We have been distilling since 2014 but this ethos has already resulted in us being voted number 1 of 8 distilleries to visit in the world before you die (World Whisky Day), hold Gold Certified status with Visit England since 2018, and most recently been awarded the World's Best Single Malt at the 2022 Whisky Magazine Awards. [...] As a new distillery, we know that to prosper we cannot play safe. True to the place, we have to be willing and happy to take risks, to challenge convention, and be imbued with the creative urge to look for the sublime, rather than the pretty and nice. But challenging convention doesn't mean rejecting whisky's heritage. If the whisky is to be truly ours, then it has to learn from experience of centuries, but also move forward in ways which are appropriate to this distillery.
