Special Features:

Maturation in ex-bourbon casks shapes The Pogues Irish Single Malt Whiskey. It was developed by whiskey specialist Frank McHardy at West Cork. Its character brings together nutty, roasted notes and sweetness with restrained wood spice.

The single malt is triple-distilled and bottled at 40% alcohol in bottles containing 0.7 litres each. It contains no added colouring and is chill-filtered.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: The nose offers slightly savoury notes alongside roasted seeds, crunchy caramel and chocolate-coated peanuts. A very subtle hint of violet sweets complements the nutty aroma.
  • Palate: The palate opens with subtle wood spice and cinnamon, followed by chocolate-coated peanuts and sweet sesame brittle. Hints of nougat and marshmallow add to the flavour.
  • Finish: The finish is soft and mild, with a full aftertaste.

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, with two small stills purchased from a Swiss schnapps producer. In 2014, the distillery moved to Skibbereen.

As the distillery expanded, the team built much of the equipment it needed itself. The new site on Marsh Road in Skibbereen opened in 2020 and also houses the warehouses. The company remains Irish-owned and sources ingredients locally wherever possible.
