The first single malt made in England for about a century has attracted the interest of UK whisky enthusiasts.
St George's Distillery, a family-run Norfolk company, is behind the drink.
The distillery was built in Roudham, south Norfolk, in 2006, and now, after three years maturing its first batch, has produced whisky.
The MD Mr Nelstrop, who is a farmer, explained that he had fulfilled an ambition handed down to him from a previous generation.
"My father was a barley farmer who always said it should be something we should do," he said.
"Barley has historically been sent from here to Scotland to make whisky, this was a 45-year-old dream and we've done it."
