About River Rock Single Malt

River Rock single malt whisky is sweeter, more welcoming, and without any aggressive aromas or ‘burn’. By selecting the spirit from higher up the copper still during distillation, River Rock has a cleaner flavour. The spirit is then aged in American Bourbon casks; as a result, their whiskies have an easy going sweetness with a spicy oak finish. River Rock's Batch #2 bottles are made from the wonky glass created when moving from green to clear so they come in a glorious range of green tints – each one unique! Whiskies that won't cost the earth, in more ways than one!
