From tree to bottle
From tree to bottling: we carry out every step in-house, with an eye for quality and respect for the Twente landscape. Where possible, we use local ingredients, such as water from a local source and our own barrels made from Twente oak.
Our whisky is therefore an ode to Twente. Without the richness of nature, we cannot create a refined whisky. The oak from the Twente hedgerow landscape plays a leading role in this. Only the best, quarter-sawn wood is selected and processed in Austria by master coopers into whisky barrels of exceptional quality.
This makes our whisky unique worldwide: nowhere else on earth does whisky mature in barrels made from Dutch wood, let alone Twente oak. This combination of pure raw materials and ancient craftsmanship gives our whisky its distinct, characteristic and recognizable taste. A taste that carries the soul of Twente in every drop.
Awarding
Our passion does not go unnoticed. The distinct taste of Sculte Whisky is renowned worldwide and has now received more than 90 international awards. From the prestigious Destillata in Vienna to the International Spirits Challenge in London and the famous World Spirits Competition in San Francisco: time and again, our whiskies convince the juries.
These accolades not only underscore our passion and craftsmanship but also the unique character of whisky aged in Twente oak. Each award feels like a confirmation that the soul of Twente, captured in our bottles, is recognized and appreciated worldwide.
You will taste that same love and dedication in your glass of Sculte Whisky.
What else is in store?
In addition to our 'local hero', the Sculte Twentse Whisky, we continue to experiment with new ratios and variations in brewing, distilling, and maturation processes. This results in whiskies that not only do justice to our region and distillery but also to the connoisseur who drinks them.
Every year, we introduce new expressions, alongside our core lines: the Classic, the Peated, and the Refill. In addition, we release special one-off editions and specials, such as the unique Sum of Five, a marriage of our five whiskies from the classic line.
What always remains? Our whiskies are released in limited editions. This is the only way we can fully control our process and continue to guarantee the highest quality.
