Its amazing what you can create when you open you mind to possibilities, and this is a great example - our organic, English, single grain, wheat whisky. It is soft, buttery and floral with Madeira cake, ginger and cracked pepper.

The one benefit to a rainy day at the distillery - it prevents the empty casks from drying out. This one is an ex-bourbon from Widow Jane waiting to be filled.

Grain whisky is often perceived as a "lesser" category. In truth there is more freedom when making grain whisky, and it can be every bit as good as a single malt. With our 'flavour first' approach, we show just how good a gain whisky can be.

In our latest website article Liam explains why floor malted grains create whiskies with more complex flavours and a oilier mouthfeel. You wont be surprised to learn that Circumstance has only ever used floor malted grains in our whiskies.

We have been making a different seasonal gin, every 3 months for last 11 years, but its time to change things up a little From March 2025 we will stop offering seasonal gins and instead we will make two of our most popular recipes available all year round. Those gins will be - Ana and Heibai

Peated whisky can be amazing, but at Circumstance we made the decision to never use peat. The reasons are simple. Firstly there are no peat bogs in Bristol. Secondly, digging up peat is environmentally and ecologically problematic . More in our blog.

The GI for English Whisky proposed by the English Whisky Guild has lead to some vocal objections by the SWA. We disagree with both the SWA and the EWG. (probably no surprise!) Our thoughts on the GI and the SWAs objections can be found on our blog.
