The English Whisky Company aptly names this single malt whisky "Smokey Virgin," featured in their esteemed Small Batch Release series. This whisky has earned its name as it underwent a 6-year maturation process in new (virgin) oak casks infused with the essence of peat smoke, resulting in a distinctive character and a notable 46% ABV.
