Pot Still
Classic
Triple Distilled Single Malt
100% Irish malted barley
Triple distilled in traditional copper pot stills for exceptional purity and natural smoothness. Rich orchard fruit, vanilla sweetness and a long, warming finish. The definitive expression of Irish craft whiskey.
Citrus FruitVanilla
Pot Still
Double Distilled Single Malt
100% Irish malted barley
All the character of single malt with greater weight and texture from double distillation. Bolder cereal notes, riper fruit and natural oils that develop beautifully with time in the cask.
Apple PieBananas
Pot Still
Uniquely Irish
Triple Distilled Pot Still
Malted & unmalted barley
The only whiskey style exclusive to Ireland. A unique mashbill of malted and unmalted barley gives a creamy mouthfeel, a distinctive spiciness, and a complexity that simply cannot be replicated anywhere else.
AllspiceVanilla
Pot Still
Double Distilled Pot Still
Malted & unmalted barley
Ireland’s original whiskey character in full force. The unmalted barley contributes extra body, earthiness and that famous pot still spice — rich, oily and gloriously complex. Traditional Irish whiskey at its most powerful.
Fruit CakeRaisins
Pot Still
Rare
Triple Distilled Peated Single Malt
Peated malted barley
A genuinely rare Irish expression. Gently peated malt adds a warm, smoky undercurrent beneath layers of fruit and vanilla — a completely unexpected dimension to the Irish style. Remarkable to own, extraordinary to taste.
AllspiceGrapefruit
Column Still
Single Grain
Grain & malted barley mashbill
Column distilled to a very high purity, producing an exceptionally light and smooth spirit — vanilla, sweet cereal and a clean, elegant mouthfeel. An ideal canvas for ambitious finishing casks to show their full character.

Choose Your Finishing Cask
Your spirit matures in first-fill ex-bourbon throughout. During the final period, it’s moved into your chosen finishing cask — where it takes on an entirely new dimension of character.
Chablis
Chablis
White Burgundy · France
From the northernmost wine district of Burgundy, Chablis is celebrated for its crisp acidity and distinctive mineral, ‘flinty’ character. In the cask, this translates to elegant citrus lift, green apple and a clean, precise finish.
Sherry
Sherry
Oloroso · Jerez, Spain
Oloroso — meaning ‘scented’ — is a deeply oxidative, fortified wine from Jerez. Dark, rich and nutty, its character transforms whiskey with waves of dried fruit, dark chocolate, hazelnuts and warming spice.
Port
Port
Ruby Port · Douro Valley, Portugal
Ruby Port is sweet, rich and intensely fruity. Port casks contribute vivid red berry character — plum, cherry, raspberry — along with a natural sweetness and a silky, extraordinary finish. Your whiskey will deepen in colour remarkably.
Red Wine
Red Wine
Full-bodied red wine cask
Where Sherry is rich and dark, a Red Wine finish is more vibrant and fruit-forward — juicy berry character, fine tannins and a beautiful garnet hue in the glass. Elegant, approachable and genuinely surprising.
Rye
Rye
American Rye Whiskey Cask · USA
American rye casks carry bold, assertive character — black pepper, dried citrus, clove and a hint of mint. The interaction between rye-seasoned American oak and Irish pot still or malt spirit creates a genuinely fascinating transatlantic dialogue.
Chablis — Burgundy, France
Sherry — Jerez, Spain
Port — Douro Valley, Portugal
Red Wine — Bordeaux, France
Rye — Kentucky, USA

How Long Will You Wait?
Time in the cask shapes everything. Your maturation period is locked in at reservation and shared across your cohort group. The longer the wait, the deeper the reward.
The Party Starter
5 Years
60 months in the cask
At five years, spirit and cask have truly found each other. The harsh edges of new spirit are long gone — replaced by the first confident waves of vanilla, caramel and fruit from the oak. A well-formed, expressive Irish whiskey.
Recommended
Stirred Down Spirit
8 Years
96 months in the cask
By eight years, your whiskey has been genuinely shaped by the cask as much as the distillery. Complexity has built layer by layer — spice integrates, texture becomes almost silky, and your finishing cask is woven through every drop.
Prestige
Sophisticated Sipper
10 Years
120 months in the cask
A decade in the cask. This is where legend is made. Every element — fruit, oak, spice and the deep character of your finishing cask — is layered, integrated and completely unique to your cohort. Rare. Considered. Worth every year.
