It's a drink that can be used to celebrate, to commiserate, to toast good fortune or just as something to warm up a cold evening.Whisky is a drink which conjures up images of sitting in a comfortable chair or at a bar in a rural town in Scotland with hundreds of bottles to hand, full of flavour and aroma and something that provides a warming sensation.
World Whisky Day, which happens on the third Saturday of May every year, is a celebration of the drink, with people all over the world invited to raise a glass of their favourite and toast the art of the drink. Within the West Midlands, there are four active distilleries making and selling whisky - in the Black Country, Staffordshire and Shropshire, all at different stages of production.
In Shropshire, the Henstone Distillery in Trewern has been producing and selling whisky since 2021, while the Ludlow Distillery has been producing its single malt English Whisky since 2018.
