West Cork Bog Oak Charred Cask | Glengarriff Series Single Malt
A Triple Distilled Irish Single Malt Finished in Locally Sourced Bog Oak Casks
West Cork Bog Oak Charred Cask is one of the most innovative expressions to emerge from the Irish whiskey revival. Part of the distillery's "Glengarriff Series," this single malt explores the unique influence of ancient Irish timber. After being triple distilled, the whiskey begins its maturation in ex-sherry casks, providing a rich and fruity foundation.
The defining characteristic of this whiskey is its finishing period in charred bog oak casks. The oak for these barrels is harvested from the local boglands of Glengarriff, West Cork. This ancient wood is charred using a proprietary method to extract deep, earthy, and smoky tones that are entirely unique to the Irish landscape. The result is a whiskey that serves as a liquid representation of the West Cork terroir.
