Britain's Prince Charles gave his royal seal of approval to a new whisky made in honour of him yesterday (26.06.08).
The future king tasted the 56 per cent drink at the Penderyn distillery, where he opened a new £850,000 visitor centre on the last day of his tour of Wales.
When Dr. Jim Swan, the drink's creator, told Charles its strength, the prince remarked: "Now you tell me!"
He added: "It is remarkable... superb. You don't find many like that."
It is remarkable... superb. You don't find many like that.
Charles was then given one of only three bottles of the special edition Madeira cask-produced whisky to be made.
Before entering the new visitor centre, Charles was presented with a bouquet of roses for his wife Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, by Halle Rose Roberts, two, although she quickly asked for them back.
Halle's aunt, Jennifer Williams, said: "Halle said she needed to see Prince Charles today. She gave him flowers but then she asked for them back!"
