Currach Seaweed Cask Finish
A deliciously intriguing Irish whiskey here from Currach, the single malt was finished in seaweed charred casks! See, we told you it was intriguing. The casks didn't previously hold seaweed – Atlantic seaweed was actually used to char the casks! The team behind the whiskey harvested kombu seaweed from the coast of County Clare and charred the casks with it, imparting heaps of umami notes to the wood, and then in went the whiskey itself for a three month finish. Funky stuff!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Caramel and earthy vanilla leads into green oak and a savoury, roasted undertone.
Palate
Caramelised nuts and salted caramel, with digestive biscuits, smoked seaweed and bitter dark chocolate in support.
Finish
Sweet and salty, with roasted coffee bean, toffee and umami notes lingering.
