The only commercial whisky distillery in Africa, the James Sedgwick Distillery is the Home of Three Ships Whisky with a rich history of producing award-winning spirits. The distillery has been at the forefront of innovation with state-of-the-art equipment
and ingenious sustainability projects, and was recently recognised by being awarded as the Sustainable Distillery of the Year at the 2020 Icons of Whisky Awards held annually by Whisky Magazine in London.

The maturation cellar is the quiet lifeblood of the James Sedgwick Distillery. It's here where the angel's share wraps an invisible blessing over the warehouse. The interaction between the spirit, wood and air is the complex collaboration of science, magic and patience all essential in producing a whisky of incomparable quality.
You can almost taste the whisky when spending time in this enchanting space where the various types of casks rest. And it's during this aging process where our spirit truly realises their character as our Master
Distiller, Andy Watts, experiments with a variety of finishes and styles.
