My first “business” as a young boy was not a lemonade stand but selling Victoria plums and Pippin apples to people in our village. Ripe, sweet and delicious orchard fruits synonymous with the end of Summer coupled with fond memories of sitting with my grandfather harvesting our barley.

The first time we experimented distilling barley and tasting plum and apple wood, it took me straight back to those memories and I became giddy at the thought of creating a release celebrating Orchards & harvest.

We selected English regenerative pale malt Barley from Muntons down the road in Suffolk as our base distillate for its wonderful raisin and biscuit character. Plum wood from a family with orchards in Wales, Apple wood from the iconic orchards of Worcestershire and cherry wood from our own wild cherry trees which we smoked using cherry wood itself.

Sylva Orchard’s fruit and gentle smoke forward profile embodies a sense of time and place celebrating hazy days and harvest. Easy over ice, vibrant long with soda or indulgent in a Manhattan or Old fashioned style cocktail.
