The Cotswolds Distillery (The Cotswolds, England) WF0020 Today, we head to the largest distillery in England by volume. A distillery you may or may not have heard of - but you soon will (especially since you're listening to this show). I sit down with the brand's Whisky Brand Ambassador Rob Patchett to talk about the evolution of the distillery, its New Yorker founder, the development of a world class tourist experience, and the spirits they are creating. Plus, on This Week in Whiskey Lore, we'll revisit an event that happened 4 years ago, that brought a historic brand to a new home. And we'll trace the history of that brand back to just after the Civil War. And if I pique your interest in visiting distilleries in this region, make sure to check out the 20+ English whisky distillery profiles at <a href="https://whiskey-lore.com/england." rel= "noopener noreferrer nofollow" data-link-auto= "">whiskey-lore.com/england.</a>
