Pinot noir casks have become a popular addition to the whiskey finish catalogue and its use here to complete this Drumshanbo single pot still Irish whiskey release is a triumph.

Original Drumshanbo Single Pot Still is a wonderful release on its own, embedded with tons of flavour and personality. Using a combination of unmalted and malted Irish barley, it creates a wonderfully oily mouthfeel that carries pot spice notes beneath a delicate warmth.
