About This Wire Work's Whisky

A stout finished single malt English whisky... but not just any stout. Necessary Evil is a Derbyshire-crafted imperial stout (ABV of 13%), in this instance aged in oak PX hogsheads by White Peak's friends up the road at Thornbridge Brewery. Wire Works Whisky Necessary Evil Finish is a proper Derbyshire collaboration.

White Peak first matured their Wire Works whisky in fresh, first fill ex-bourbon barrels for a minimum of 3 years before disgorging the whisky and finishing for several months in the stout seasoned PX oak casks from Thornbridge.

Last year's release of Wire Works Necessary Evil Finish won a Gold Medal in the 2022 World Whisky Masters.

How much is shipping?

Shipping charges are calculated during checkout, depending on where you live and how many bottles you’re buying. It's usually more cost effective to ship two or more bottles, particularly for international orders. The perfect excuse to treat yourself to an extra bottle!

What about taxes?

All alcoholic products sold by TopWhiskies are sold subject to UK alcohol tax, which is already included in the price.

UK sales are subject to VAT (currently 20%), which is included in the price. Sales outside of the UK are not subject to this tax, and international prices do not include it.

We use a specialist US shipper who sorts out US taxes. These costs are factored into the US shipping charges. So shipping may look pricey, but remember it covers your taxes as well, so there'll be no further bills to pay. US Customs takes two to three weeks to complete, after which your parcel will arrive at your door as if it were a normal delivery.

For all other territories, including those in Europe, please note: your order could be subject to local sales taxes and duties upon arrival in the destination country. All additional charges are the responsibility of the recipient. As customs policies vary widely from country to country, TopWhiskies has no control over these charges, so you should contact your local customs office for further information. If you refuse to pay any import duties and taxes, this could result in the goods being destroyed by customs or being returned back to us - any refund offered would include a deduction of our costs.

Which couriers do you use?

In the UK we use Royal Mail, Parcelforce and APC. US orders are sent via UPS. International orders use FedEx and DHL. Orders are despatched from our UK warehouse Mondays to Fridays, excluding public holidays.
