Frequently Asked Questions

What is special about Penderyn's distillation process?

Penderyn uses its own patented distillation process, which produces a light, fruity spirit. Combined with maturation in ex-bourbon casks and a finish in Madeira casks, it creates the tropical sweetness the brand is known for. This Gold Range Madeira shows that house style most clearly.

What does a Madeira cask do to whisky?

It adds tropical fruit, honey and a gentle caramel sweetness. Madeira is a fortified wine from the Portuguese island of Madeira; the casks that held the wine release those sunny notes during the finish. That is why this Penderyn sits in Smooth & Fruity on our Flavour Compass.

How should you serve the Penderyn Madeira as an aperitif?

Neat, at room temperature, in a small tulip glass. At 41% ABV it is soft enough to drink without water. Serve something light alongside, such as mango sorbet or a coconut macaroon, and the whisky's tropical fruit will pair nicely.
