Clonakilty Single Batch Double Oak Finish Irish Whiskey
Product Description
Clonakilty Single Batch Double Oak Finish Whiskey is the flagship of Clonakilty’s Cask Finish Series.
A premium product matured in ex-bourbon casks, it is finished in virgin American oak; and shaved, toasted and re-charred ex-red wine European oak casks (NEOC, New Era of Cask).
This makes it the world’s first Irish whiskey to be finished in a NEOC cask. NEOC are ex-red wine barrels from the Bordeaux region of France. They are hand-shaved by traditional coopers, and re-toasted according to each individual distiller’s specification.
The Distillers at Clonakilty have hand selected an 8 year old grain and 10 year old triple distilled malt to create this first single batch Clonakilty Irish whiskey.
WHISKEY NOTES:
Nose: Soft spices, vanilla, fresh cut grass, slightly perfumed, riple apple/pear notes. Fresh leather tones.
Palate: Warm spices - cubed pepper and ginger. Fresh cut grass, hazelnut and almond notes.
Finish: Well-balanced Irish whiskey with spices lingering on the palate.
