The West London based Bimber Distillery, has announced the launch of the second batch of releases from its Spirit of the Underground Collection.
The four new releases in the series which has been created
in partnership with Transport for London, have been drawn from some of the
distillery’s oldest stock laid down in 2016.

The collection which launched in May 2021, will feature a
total of 44 individual releases over a three-year period, features a selection
of iconic single malt whiskies that celebrate the heritage and diversity of the
distillery’s home city. With striking individual designs, each bottle presents
a different Tube station on the London Underground network - the oldest
underground passenger railway service in the world.
Each release features stunning iconography presenting a
unique piece of London’s history, and comes adorned with an eye-catching label
and packaging design that observes the significance of each station’s location.
Commenting on the launch, Matt McKay from Bimber, said: “Following
a terrific reception earlier this year to the first four releases from The
Spirit of the Underground, we’re thrilled to unveil the next stations that will
be joining the Collection. For this second collaborative release with Transport
for London we have selected four distinctive and exceptional casks from amongst
our very finest. Each typifies our hand-crafted approach to whisky making,
whilst at the same time offering an ever-broadening selection of flavour
experiences with which to celebrate the history and diversity of our home –
London.”
Limited in quantities, the second batch of Bimber Spirit of
the Underground Collection bottlings, will be available later this month via a
ballot on the Bimber website. RRP £125.00 per bottle.
