We've released MANY HANDS: England's first open collaboration between two distilleries, and the first Yorkshire blended malt whisky. And it's a cracker. @SpiritYorkshire and Cooper King combine to bring honeycomb, peach cobbler, blackcurrant leaf, toasted cashews. Link in bio.
We've got a new stockists map on our website, showing a load of the places you can buy a bottle, sip a Cooper King drink at the bar or even refill your empty bottle. Handy for tracking down a bottle of whisky that's sold out on our website! https://t.co/tTkPlNvitV
The 8th edition of the English Whisky Map is now out! We've got 69 whisky distilleries now, quite the jump from the 14 there were when we started producing this map 10 years ago. Buy yours at https://t.co/NkCnvxbhTZ #englishwhiskymap#englishwhiskyweek
Only 18 bottles left of our Smoked Cask release! Grab one on our website now https://t.co/MxtkSFmaO5, and find out what happens when you cold-smoke an ex-bourbon cask (hint: it's good) #sustainablespirits#madeinyorkshire#singlemaltwhisky

We can finally share that we'll be appearing on @BBCCountryfile this weekend! BBC1, Sunday 10/08 at 18:15. We show the charming John Craven around the distillery and chat about how we're using heritage barley and skills with a modern focus on sustainability. #sustainablespirits
What a day! Thanks so much to everyone who joined us for our 2025 Summer Bash last weekend. It's always pretty mind-blowing for us to see the site packed with people, having a great time and drinking various things we've made. See you all next year!
Have you tried New Make Spirit? It's where all whisky begins, the unaged spirit - colourless but full of intense flavour. Ours is fruity, creamy, sweet and malty, and available on our website!
Something a bit different this Friday night? We're hosting a tasting at the brilliant @whiskys_co_uk Stamford Bridge, York. There are a few tickets remaining, so go to https://t.co/nUX7dSr0aT | 7pm 23/05 , including some very limited releases. See you there!
Raise a glass with us on #WorldWhiskyDay2025 to the brilliant growth of whisky making all around the world! There are literally thousands of different styles and flavours to explore and we're chuffed to be making some delicious stuff here in our corner of #Yorkshire too. Cheers!
The Bicycle Thief: your new go-to aperitif to sip with the last of the day's sunshine.
30ml Cooper King x Skosh Smoked & Spiced Gin
30 ml Campari
45ml grapefruit juice
15ml lemon juice
15ml Simple syrup
Stir them all together with ice, top with soda water & lemon twist to garnish
We're growing! Three new people have joined the Cooper King team: Will and Jamie in Production and Zoe in Marketing. There are suddenly quite a few people to fit round the table for our meetings - a long way from the early days in 2018 when it was just Chris and Abbie.
Everything is gloriously green around the distillery right now, and it puts us in the mood for an ice cold Herb Gin G&T. It's got fresh basil, a hint of fragrant lemongrass and aromatic clove in there, and it couldn't be a better gin for spring.

This recent run of fantastic weather has been great - partly because we can have our lunch outside - but mainly because it means all our whisky and gin production is being powered for free BY THE SUN!
Last year we installed 40kWh of solar panels on the distillery roofs and a 30kWh battery system. The power they generate will contribute greatly to the distilling of our carbon-negative #gin and net zero energy #whisky.
NEW WEDNESDAY TOURS! We're in the middle of #EnglishWhiskyWeek so why not book a tour of England's first #NetZeroEnergy whisky distillery, we're now open Wednesdays and Saturdays, book at https://t.co/5MHygI7k5s and pop into our lovely #Yorkshire distillery.
• SUMMER BASH • Soak up the sun at our Summer Bash on June 21st - and skip the drive home! You can now camp on-site after an afternoon of great food, drink and music.
There are limited camping pitches available, via the Eventbrite page: https://t.co/WeGQhhbdyu.
