Why I chose this

I often start with the Legend when someone has never tasted a Welsh whisky. It is light, fresh and free of barriers, a bottle you understand straight away even without any prior knowledge. On a summer evening in the garden, it does exactly what it should.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Penderyn's Dragon Range?

A range of approachable Penderyn whiskies at 41% ABV, with names that refer to the myths and roots of Wales. Legend is named after the legends of the Brecon Beacons and Celt after Celtic history. Legend is the light, fruity base; Celt the gently smoky variant.

Is the Penderyn Legend suitable for beginners?

Yes, it is one of the most approachable whiskies in our range. It sits in Smooth & Fruity on our Flavour Compass, is 41% ABV and has a short to medium, fresh finish. Ex-bourbon maturation with a Madeira finish brings soft fruit and light honey without sharp edges.

Can you drink the Penderyn Legend in a highball?

Yes, its light, fruity character lends itself well to that. Fill a tall glass with ice, add a small measure of Legend and top up with chilled soda or ginger ale. Neat in a tulip glass, of course, you taste the apple and blossom best.
