Lishman’s Butchers and Charcutiers, based in Ilkley, have collaborated with Spirit of Yorkshire Distillery, in Hunmanby, to produce a salami – using the latter business’s ‘Filey Bay STR Finish single malt whisky.’
Jenni Ashwood, marketing director at Spirit of Yorkshire, said: “Lishman’s award-winning range of charcuterie was inspired by holidays to Tuscany where the Lishmans tasted charcuterie and visited local producers.
“Over the years, they have developed recipes combining traditional techniques with local produce, and we’re proud to have collaborated to produce Pork and Filey Bay Whisky Salami.
“Here at Spirit of Yorkshire Distillery, we’re always looking for innovative ways to showcase the unique character of our single malt whisky.
“This winter salami is a delicious blend of Yorkshire Pork and Yorkshire whisky, with a hint of Tellicherry pepper for warmth.”
The Filey Bay STR Finish single malt whisky, which is used in the salami, is matured in ex-bourbon casks before being ‘finished’ in STR casks, which are ex-red wine casks that have been shaved, toasted, and recharred.
Lishman’s Pork and Filey Bay Whisky Salami costs £6 and is available online from https://www.lishmansbutchers.co.uk/
