The London
Distillery Company unveils first release
in ambitious new English blended malt
series - The London Distillery Company
The Golden Union: Release No.1 – A Field
in England.
The London Distillery Company (TLDC)
continues its revival with the launch of
The Golden Union: Release No.1 – A Field
in England, the debut expression in a
new series of English blended malt
whiskies.
Following the rapid sell-out of
Renascence: The Revival Release—TLDC’s
first whisky since its rebirth earlier
this year—this latest release marks
another milestone for the London craft
distillery.
Available from Monday 30th June, A Field
in England is a skilful blend of malt
whiskies from TLDC and Adnams
Distillery. Drawn from multiple vintages
and matured in both hogsheads and
barrels, the expression reflects the
complexity and nuance of English
whisky-making. Bottled at 50% ABV, it
features a distinctive tripartite label
inspired by TLDC’s new logo: a single
drop of liquid falling into the Thames
Basin.
The Golden Union is TLDC’s tribute to
the dynamic and evolving English whisky
landscape. Each release in the ongoing
series will spotlight diverse malt
whiskies from across England—crafted
with varying techniques and aged in a
range of cask types. Carefully blended
in small batches by TLDC, the series
aims to celebrate unity through
complexity, showcasing the depth,
character, and creativity of English
whisky.
Speaking of the launch, TLDC Managing
Director and Whisky Maker Matt McKay
said. "At The London Distillery Company,
we’ve long believed in the potential of
English whisky. And with The Golden
Union, we’re proud to celebrate that
belief by launching an ongoing series
that puts English malt whisky - in all
its diversity - centre stage. For
decades, drinkers have largely looked to
the whisky powerhouses of Scotland,
Ireland, and Japan for whiskies which
express the elegance and exploration
that it is possible to achieve through
the art of blending. But recently,
England has confidently joined that
conversation. There are now over 50
licensed distilleries producing whisky
across the country, each contributing
their own textures, techniques, and
philosophies to the production of malt
whisky. What sets English whisky apart
is precisely this freedom: the absence
of rigid expectations."
The Golden Union: Release No.1 – A Field
in England will be available for £49.95
from specialist online whisky
shops such as
The Whisky Exchange
and
Master of Malt
