Special Features:

Galley Head Bourbon Cask combines 20% Single Pot Still whiskey from Clonakilty Distillery with Irish grain whiskey. The pot still component brings spice, while the grain whiskey gives the blend a silky texture. The whiskey matures exclusively in ex-bourbon casks and is bottled at 40%.

Fruit, vanilla and gentle sweetness define its character before ginger and elderberry add a spicy counterpoint. Floral honey, coconut biscuits and oatcakes complete the aromatic picture.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: The nose reveals raspberries and baked green apples, accompanied by a delicate note of floral honey.
  • Palate: Vanilla and juicy raisins come together on the palate.
  • Finish: The finish is light and clear, with ginger spice, a little elderberry and lingering sweetness.

Distillery/Bottler:

The Scully family has farmed land in southwest Ireland for nine generations and founded Clonakilty Distillery in County Cork in 2016. The distillery produces the Single Pot Still component for Galley Head itself and blends it with Irish grain whiskey. It has its own facilities for maturation, blending and bottling.

With its Gentle Cut method, Clonakilty adds water slowly and gradually to bring the whiskey to drinking strength. The ex-bourbon casks are stored on the Atlantic coast; for Galley Head Bourbon Cask, this cask type is used throughout maturation.
