Staff at White Peak Distillery, which has revived the former Johnson & Nephew Wire Works complex within the Derwent Valley Mills UNESCO World Heritage Site, will begin sampling the single malt whisky within days.
If all goes to plan, around 50 casks will be sampled by mid-summer to select those which will be bottled as the first batch of Wire Works whisky, expected to go on sale in October.
