COTSWOLDS JGS PRIVATE CASK 2025 70CL

John Gordons 20th Anniversary –  8yo Cotswolds Single Cask Whisky

Ex-Bordeaux Red Wine Cask STR | 61.9% ABV | Limited Release

To celebrate two decades of John Gordons — Cheltenham’s iconic bar and cafe / shop — We are proud to unveil this very limited single cask release from the Cotswolds Distillery.

Founded in 2006, John Gordons has built a reputation for curating the finest wines and whiskies, so it felt only fitting that our 20th anniversary bottling should unite both worlds. Matured in an ex-Bordeaux red wine cask, this whisky reflects our roots in wine and our enduring passion for exceptional spirits.

Bottled at a natural cask strength of 61.9% ABV, this release captures the true character of the Cotswolds spirit — rich, robust, and bursting with flavour. Expect notes of dark berries, toasted oak, and warming spice, wrapped in the deep crimson hue imparted by its Bordeaux heritage.

Every bottle comes from a single cask owned by the founders of John Gordons, making this a one-of-a-kind expression never to be repeated.

Photography by Dean Jode, who was part of our early journey as one of our first bar managers and whisky advisors. Today, Dean continues his creative path in the wider world of whisky — a fitting reunion to mark this milestone release.

This is more than just a whisky. It’s a celebration of 20 years of craftsmanship, community, and the shared passion that has shaped John Gordons since the very beginning.
