A Few Whiskey Highlights
- Single Malt: These whiskeys are made from 100% malted barley at a single distillery. Expect a rich, full-bodied flavor with complex notes—perfect for anyone looking to experience the depth of Irish craftsmanship.
- Blended Whiskey: A staple in the Irish market, blended whiskeys combine malt and grain whiskeys. Don’t miss the opportunity to taste some of the best blends that offer a smoother, lighter profile, ideal for newcomers to the whiskey scene.
- Pot Still Whiskey: Unique to Ireland, pot still whiskey is made from a mix of malted and unmalted barley. The result is a spicy, fruity character that reflects traditional Irish distillation methods—an absolute must-try.
- Grain Whiskey: Known for its lighter profile, grain whiskey is often used in blends but can stand on its own. It offers a more subtle flavor that can appeal to those who prefer delicate spirits.
