It was 100 years since whiskey was last produced in Wales before the Welsh Whiskey Company was founded in 1998. Penderyn Distillery distilled their first New Make in 2000 and bottled their first single malt whiskey in 2004. The first release was ceremoniously accompanied by many invited guests, including the Prince of Wales himself.
