BRAND NEW IRISH WHISKEY

Clonakilty are a very exciting prospect, nestled in the wild carved coast of County Cork.

Utilising as many environmentally friendly procedures and being ran by an eighth generation family of the land, this distillery is creating fun and interesting Irish whiskies at a competitive price point with all of the stuff people want.

This, the Double Oak Finish, is a combination of initial ex-bourbon cask maturation with finishing in Virgin Oak and, get ready for it, shaved, toasted and recharred European oak Bordeaux casks. Bordeaux really is the trend of 2021.

A delicious whisky that is impressive at its young age. A huge congratulations to Clonakilty! The future is bright.

ralfy review 885 – Pike Creek 21yo @ 45%vol: (Speyside cask finish)

Singleton: what is one is actually three.

Welcome to a very expensive history lesson.

Dufftown, Dullan and Ord are three of the most important distilleries within the mammoth of Johnnie Walker. But, in their own rights, they have a huge amount of diversity within being ‘typical’ Speyside and Highland distilleries.

Cutting to the chase, we got to sample the most expensive and oldest single malt that Diageo have ever released, The Singleton 54YO.

The finale of The Paragon of Time series, the prior release being a 53YO, this is the most expensive whisky I’ve ever sampled…but is it worth the money? Not only is this an amazing opportunity for myself, but it’s also a history lesson in all sense. So do head to the video and have a listen!

Amongst this archaic sample of liquid history, there is also reviews of the 21YO, 25YO and a 38YO which is very, VERY different.

Mark’s Whisky Ramblings 394: Eaglesburn 3 Year Old 2017 Double Wood

Mark Dermul, Belgian whisky blogger, goes Dutch. Eaglesburn, the micro distillery run by the good natured Bart Joosten, has released a Double Wood. This whisky, distilled on 13th October 2017, matured on a ex-bourbon cask and was then finished in virgin oak. As Bart is wont to do, he bottled it at 47% in 20cl bottles – in this case on 27th April 2021.
