The Whiskey

West Cork

Maritime Virgin Oak Cask

Raw wood. Refined over time.

Virgin oak starts strong. Bold. Direct. Uncompromising. Time takes the edge off. Turns it into structure. Depth. Grip. Still assertive. Just more considered.

Serving Suggestions

How to pour it

Neat

Best enjoyed in a clean tulip glass to reveal the full character of the whiskey.

With Water

A few drops of still spring water open the nose and bring the fruit forward.

On Ice

A single large cube in a rocks glass. Slow dilution through the evening.

Cocktail

Versatile in classic cocktails — try an Old Fashioned or a Whiskey Sour.
