In the lush green landscapes of Wales, Penderyn Distillery has carved a place in whisky history as the nation’s most celebrated modern producer. Reviving Welsh whisky making in 2004 after more than a century of silence, Penderyn is known for its signature single copper pot stills that produce an exceptionally light and pure spirit. The Rich Oak expression captures this heritage with a bolder twist, marrying their delicate style with the deep, complex influence of European oak casks.
