A Perfect Blend of Craftsmanship and Heritage

We are thrilled to announce a unique partnership with the renowned Wolfburn Distillery to create a limited-edition whisky that perfectly encapsulates heritage, quality, and craftsmanship.

A celebration of timelessness, every aspect of this whisky has been carefully considered; from the creation of an 8-year-old single malt in a nod to the grill numbers of the racing Bentley Boys; to the daring and courageous spirit pioneered by both brands.

Wolfburn’s attention to detail, dedication to quality, and respect for traditional methods make them the ideal partner for this exciting collaboration.

For almost 30 years Vintage Bentley have been delivering best in class service to past, present, and future W.O custodians. Located between the historic circuits of Brooklands and Goodwood, the small team of 25 provide every facet of vintage Bentley preservation and restoration in-house. From parts to workshop, showroom to toolroom, the team use traditional methods paired with cutting edge technology to ensure W.Os are thoroughly enjoyed.

Nestled in Thurso, Scotland, Wolfburn has been producing some of the finest single malt Scotch whiskies since 1821. After closing its doors in 1858 the distillery fell to ruin until 150 years later when a team took on the challenge of rebuilding and reviving the distillery, returning it to its former glory. Now a world class distillery, Wolfburn’s smooth and warming flavour stems from the unhurried way in which the spirit is made. Long fermentation is followed by gentle distillation, before the spirit is laid down in the best quality oak casks.

William Medcalf, Vintage Bentley Founder: “It was a natural choice to work with Harry and his fantastic team in Thurso. Harry’s passion for perfection and daring do approach to life aligned perfectly with us at Vintage Bentley. Through this collaboration we wanted to capture the adventurous spirit of W.O owners past and present and, with Wolfburn’s expertise, that’s exactly what we have achieved. At the end of a hard days’ rallying, when you’re sat on a rock under the stars in the middle of nowhere with only your W.O for company, you can pour a glass and know that you are not alone – the spirit of adventure lives on!”

Harry Tayler, Wolfburn Co-Founder: "It’s been an honour to work alongside Vintage Bentley to create a whisky that mirrors the heritage and quality of the cars and the business alike. This collaboration was about merging our distinctive histories into something that whisky lovers and W.O enthusiasts can truly appreciate.“

From whisky connoisseur to vintage Bentley enthusiast, this collaboration promises to deliver an experience rich in flavour and heritage. The perfect fireside tipple after a day of adventuring in a W.O.
