Distiller Notes
Before there was whiskey, there was poitín, the father of Irish whiskey and an ancient ancestor of all distillled drinks. It was first made by Irish monks in the 6th century in monasteries like Glendalough and known as "uisce beatha," the water of life. Outlawed in 1661, but now it is back. Ours is triple distilled in a traditional copper pot-stilled using malted barlet and pure spring water and bottled at 55% for a strong, authentic taste of Ireland's original spirit.
Sip it neat or on the rocks for a true taste, or mix it for long drinks and cocktails with an extra kick.

What Whiskey will not cure, there is no cure for.
Coming in a multitude of styles depending on its origin, Whisk(e)y’s flavors range across the board from the sweet, caramel and vanilla-dominated American Bourbons to the briny, peat-heavy Islay Single Malts from Scotland. Though production methods differ widely, all Whiskeys are made by distilling beer made from some type of grain, such as barley, corn, wheat or rye. After the distillation process is complete, the new, clear spirit is transferred to wooden casks where it matures, a process that can take up to thirty years or more.
