Overview

More Info

Clonakilty Distillery sits on West Cork's wild Atlantic coast, where the Scully family has farmed barley by the sea for generations. This blend pairs a smooth Irish malt with nine-year-old grain whiskey, finished together in port casks from Portugal's Douro Valley. Expect a peach-gold pour with baby powder and jasmine on the nose, cinnamon-scone sweetness, dried orange peel, and red apple, all carried by a delicate, well-balanced palate. Sip it neat after dinner, or alongside dark chocolate to echo its port-cask sweetness.
Gluten Free
Tasting notes

Nose: Fresh, ripe peaches and zesty aromas, creamy with a hint of wood character in the background.

Palate: Very fruity with peaches and zests, soft spices, some chili and cardamom in the length.

Finish: Middle long with a gentle pepperiness, the spices linger and get softer towards the end.
