Aber Falls

Aber Falls Distillery, nestled in the picturesque village of Abergwyngregyn in North Wales, represents a revival of whisky production in the region after over a century. Established in 2017, it's not only a beacon of Welsh distilling heritage but also an embodiment of local craft and innovation. The distillery is known for using 100% Welsh malted barley and water from the nearby Rhaeadr Fawr waterfall, giving its spirits a unique regional character. Their first single malt whisky, launched in 2021, marked a significant milestone, showcasing their commitment to quality with its aging in a mix of American and European oak, Spanish sherry, virgin oak, and orange wine casks. This inaugural release has been described as having a delightful aroma of vanilla and toffee with fruity undertones, offering a smooth, complex palate with notes of sherry, fruit, and spice. Aber Falls Distillery also engages in community and sustainability, using local ingredients and supporting the local economy, which adds to its appeal for those interested in both the tradition and future of Welsh whisky.
