About Star Hill Farm Whisky 2026
The whisky uses three distinctive varieties of wheat grown with regenerative agriculture methods.* This gives it a rich fruitiness and a complex, layered taste.
It is also matured for seven to eight years without moving the barrels during aging. The result is a natural flavor shaped by the aging environment, along with the rich character of its ingredients.
*Regenerative agriculture is farming that aims to improve soil health and restore the natural environment through practices such as using cover crops, crop rotation, and cultivation that reduces the burden on the soil.
