Briggs of Burton welcome the English Whisky Guild (EWG) to the Global Technical Centre.

Many thanks to the The English Whisky Guild (EWG) for choosing our Global Technical Centre in Burton-Upon-Trent for its inaugural meeting of the Guild’s Founding Associate Members.
It was great to meet up with both the Guild distillery and Associate members to discuss the shape of the English Whisky Industry and opportunities to collaboratively build and grow the sector.

The EWG represents a range of distilleries, both large and small reflecting the industry’s breadth. You can find out more about what they do here.

Along with Briggs, other Founding Associate Members of the EWG include: Ad Gefrin Distillery, East London Liquor Company, Henstone Distillery, The Cotswold Distilling Company, White Peak Distillery, The Lakes Distillery, The Spirit of Manchester, The Oxford Artisan Distillery, Spirit of Yorkshire, Howdens, Ellis IP, Close Brothers, Ranking Cork, Cooper King, and Simpsons Malt.
