The Chancellor’s Cask
On the 13th of May, we were delighted to welcome back The Right Honourable Kenneth Clarke MP to the distillery. He first visited on the same date in 1994, during his tenure as Chancellor of the Exchequer, at which time he filled a fresh sherry hogshead. On the return visit 25 years later, along with local MP Douglas Ross and Lord and Lady Cope of Berkeley, he checked the progress of the cask and agreed it was ready for bottling.
The bottles are now available exclusively at the visitor centre, priced at £300. The profits from this very special bottling will go to The Salvation Army, the charity of Mr Clarke’s choice. Please note that like the Distillery Exclusive, these can only be bought in person.
