Whisky Why and Mel

Williams & Humbert Winery presents Why and Mel, originating from Castilla y León (Spain) and made from the Verdejo grape variety.

Why & Mel is a young white wine from the Rueda Designation of Origin, produced by the Mélida Jiménez winery in the wine region of Castilla y León, in Spain.

This wine stands out for its freshness and smoothness on the palate, ideal to enjoy at any time of day.

Why & Mel is a wine made from Verdejo grapes, one of the most representative varieties of the Rueda region.

The grapes are hand-harvested at their optimal ripeness and fermented at a controlled temperature to preserve their freshness and aroma.

The result is a young white wine with a pale yellow color, greenish reflections, and an intense and fresh nose with notes of tropical fruits and citrus.

The Why & Mel production process begins with a careful selection of ingredients, which include juniper, coriander, orange peel, lemon peel, cinnamon, cardamom, and nutmeg, among others.

All the botanicals are macerated and distilled in a copper still with spring water, resulting in a smooth and balanced gin with a pleasantly fresh and citrusy aroma and flavor.

Mélida Jiménez, the winery behind Why & Mel, is a family winery with over 60 years of experience in producing quality wines in the Rueda region.

The winery has managed to combine tradition and knowledge inherited from previous generations with the latest winemaking techniques to produce quality wines that faithfully represent the terroir and personality of the region.

With Why & Mel, the winery wanted to offer a young and fresh wine that reflects the essence of the Verdejo variety and the Rueda region.
