Special Features:

The IPA finish connects this Irish blend with the brewing tradition of Black’s of Kinsale. The whiskey consists of 75% grain whiskey and 25% malt whiskey. It first matures in first-fill bourbon casks before being finished in casks that previously held the brewery’s IPA. It belongs to West Cork’s Beer Series, which includes a range of beer-cask finishes.

West Cork IPA Cask Finish is bottled at 40% alcohol in 0.7-litre bottles. It is neither chill-filtered nor coloured.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: The nose reveals a subtle hop note accompanied by sweet hints.
  • Palate: On the palate, roasted nuts combine with malt and sweet spices.
  • Finish: Roasted nuts, malt and sweet spice notes linger on the finish.

Distillery/Bottler:

West Cork Distillers was founded in 2003 by childhood friends John O’Connell, Ger McCarthy and Denis McCarthy. They began in Union Hall, in a room behind Denis’ house, using two small stills purchased from a Swiss schnapps producer. The company moved to Skibbereen in 2014; today, the distillery is located on Marsh Road.

West Cork triple-distils its whiskeys and bottles them on site. Its working methods include copper pot stills built in-house and gas chromatography. This analytical technique allows the distillery to distinguish individual compounds in the distillate and check its consistency alongside sensory assessment.
