The double-distilled make of Penderyn, the Welsh distiller that revived whisky-making in Wales in 2000 after a gap of more than a century. Having outgrown its home under the Brecon Beacons, it opened sister distilleries in a former school in Llandudno in 2021 and beside the old Hafod copperworks in Swansea in 2023. A rounder, more traditional style of Welsh malt. Independently owned.
