Celebrate the visionaries who shaped Cooper King. From our founder Charles Cooper King's 19th-century voyages to our distillery's groundbreaking net zero energy production, Pioneer honours those pushing whisky forward. This release represents our commitment to crafting spirits of genuine quality whilst championing environmental responsibility. Part of our Expedition Series, Pioneer showcases a carefully curated selection from our finest cask inventory. The whisky marries opulent dried fruit and vanilla from premium wine and sherry casks with warming ginger and toasted oak derived from Kentucky rye whiskey maturation. Water reveals delicate marzipan and toast aromatics, whilst the palate unfolds with baked apple, dried hay, and indulgent vanilla pastry notes. A refined finish delivers subtle rye spice that lingers gracefully, inviting another sip.
