About the Whiskey:
FINISHED IN FRENCH CHESTNUT & MATURED IN SHERRY & AMERICAN BARRELS

A Single Pot Still whiskey aged in chestnut casks, a combination of what weve always done in Midleton and what weve never tried before. Its not often we stray from the traditional oak, but one sip suggests it was well worth the deviation.

95 Points - Whisky Advocate

"The thicker, air-dried staves of Castanea sativa have a lower density and greater porosity than American oak. The different wood breakdown products enhance the pot still style, bringing confectionery sweetness, dark prunes, and effusive lighter spices. It rolls out a thick red carpet of sweet spice, cinnamon, and clove, with more pot still weight than oak tannins. Move over Redbreast; my pick from this crazy, experimental Irish Distillers range."
