Description
Cask No. 2291, a rejuvenated Quercus Petraea (French Oak) barrique from Bordeaux and Cask No. 2301, an Oloroso Hogshead from Montilla-Moriles, made by J.L. Rodriguez from vintage staves with virgin American oak heads.
Both casks were filled on the 9th of December 2020 with a mixed mash bill of locally sourced Irish grains; 30% Malted Barley, 40% Unmalted Barley and 30% Wheat.
This mixed mash bill Irish whiskey reflects Ireland’s Wheat Boom era, shaped by Foster’s Corn Laws, the 1801 Union, and Napoleon’s blockade.
