“Understanding the impact of the desert climate on the cask was a fascinating experiment and study project,” said head distiller Tomer Goren. “I look forward to continuing our geographical experiments, with the Sea of Galilee and the Jerusalem Mountains coming up next.”

M&H, which stands for Milk & Honey, was founded in 2012 by Israeli technology entrepreneur Gal Kalkstein and claims to be the country’s first whiskey distillery.

Earlier this week, Jack Daniels brand owner Brown-Forman welcomed a return to a   “level playing field” following the US-European Union removal of retaliatory tariffs on American whiskeys.
