Description
In the late 1990s, a group of friends had the ambitious plan to establish the first whisky distillery in Wales for over a century. Their aim was to create a whisky as pure and precious as Welsh gold. In 2004, on St. David's Day, this dream became a reality when Penderyn Whisky saw the light of day. The distillery owes its uniqueness in part to the copper still with a special still designed by Dr. David Faraday. It is located in the village of Penderyn, at the southern end of the Brecon Beacons. The pure spring water from the region contributes significantly to the quality of the exceptional Penderyn whiskies.
The red dragon that adorns the flag of Wales stands for the motto "Y ddraig goch ddyry cychwyn", which means: "This fiery creature was brought to Wales by the Romans". This dragon plays a central role in numerous Celtic legends and is now regarded as a symbol of the nation.
This iconic red dragon is also highly visible on the bottle design of the Penderyn Legend. The Penderyn Legend single malt Welsh whisky is characterized by its maturation in bourbon casks before receiving its characteristic finish in Madeira casks.
