Kinahan's has introduced The Kasc Project, which aims to delve into the unknown regarding whiskey making, using hybrid casks (kascs?). Each cask has been constructed from five different types of wood, including Portuguese, American, French and Hungarian oak, as well as chestnut. The result is a complex blend marrying all different types of cask. Innovative stuff from Ireland.
Juicy autumnal fruit, namely plum, alongside pear and apple crumble. Sweeter aromas of rich caramel and pineapple peek through, supported by a spicy undertone.
Somewhat syrups, with prominent charred oak, barbecued mango and more caramelised tropical fruit with a scattering of vanilla pod. Creamy fruit and nut chocolate drizzled with runny caramel.
Aromatic, Christmassy notes of nutmeg and clove, orange oil and brown sugar, with caramelised pineapple.

Bought on the basis of reviews and was glad I did. Great drop, I find it similar to Jamesons Crested which I also love. Smooth in the mouth, on the sweet side, slow burn and even smoother finish.
The hybrid 5 woods saved the (rule of) 6 of us huddled round a bbq. Delicious whiskey, lovely mix of flavours and saved the cold day! Ordered another for next bank holiday.
This is so impressively different to the standard Irish whiskey (no disrespect) I've tried in the past. Well worth it and intrigued to see if they will follow up with more like it.
Big fan of the growing success of the Irish category and it's whiskies like Kasc that are pushing the boundaries. A lovely mix of complex flavours and my new favourite.
I couldn't hold off until Paddy's Day after my bottle arrived in time for the 6 nations. A cold spring Sunday with a rugby win, meant a dress rehearsal before the 17th. So pleased I got stuck in to a couple of tasty measures. Really complex flavours compared to usual and really looking forward to more in 2 days!
