CLONAKILTY SC Port finish NL exclusive

THE PROCESS

This single cask Clonakilty was specially created for the Dutch market. The great success of the previous Single Cask, which had been matured in Amarone casks, led us to embark on a similar project once again. Through our relationships, we were able to purchase a cask from the port house Calem Porto. This renowned Port house asked us which cask we wanted, and we told them we wanted the very best cask available.

The Master Blender got to work, selected the finest cask, and immediately sent it off to Ireland. Once it arrived in Ireland, we received a question from Clonakilty asking whether the cask needed to be filled completely. At first, we thought this was a strange question, but later we discovered that the cask was a Port Pipe with a capacity of no less than 625 litres. In short, an exceptionally large cask and therefore a lot of whiskey.

A fortunate surprise, because the whiskey is truly delicious, and we expect strong demand for this Single Pot Still Single Cask Whiskey from Clonakilty.

The Port cask finish adds rich notes of red fruit, dark berries, gentle spice and soft sweetness, while maturation in Clonakilty’s Atlantic Ocean warehouse contributes subtle maritime influence and balance. The result is a smooth and complex Irish whiskey with layered fruit, oak and spice character.
