Cooper King Distillery (North Yorkshire, England) WF0016 Join me today as I chat with Chris Jaume of Cooper King Distillery. Of all of the different ways you can get interested in building a distillery, Chris and his wife Abbie found one of the most unusual paths. They were inspired to make English whisky, not by traveling north to Scotland, but instead by heading far to the South, to one of the world's growing whisky centers - Tasmania. Hear their story and learn what inspired them about Tasmanian distillers and what processes and tools they brought back to the burgeoning English whisky scene. And if I pique your interest in visiting England's distilleries, make sure to check out the 20+ English whisky distillery profiles at <a href="https://whiskey-lore.com/england" rel= "noopener noreferrer nofollow">whiskey-lore.com/england</a>
