West Cork Peat Charred Cask 0.7 l
Special features: This bottling comes from the innovative Glengarriff series, where casks are charred with specially selected materials to create unique aromas. In the Peat Charred Cask, the casks are charred with peat, allowing phenols and other components of the peat smoke to flavor the charcoal layer. This process is a novelty from West Cork Distillers and gives the whiskey a characteristic smoky note with an Irish character.
