West Cork Distillers
In 2016, West Cork Distillers produced a trio of 12 year old Irish whiskeys initially matured in bourbon casks before being finished in a selection of casks. This expression was allowed a finishing period in Port casks, resulting in juicy fruit notes all the way through.
great value for money. similarities can be drawn with dunville's 10. entire experience was great except that it wouldve been better at 46%.
Picked up at Cadenhead's for £36 which is a fair price - I would not pay more. Beware any reviews on t'web: most are lazy press release cut'n'paste - I have only seen a couple of genuine reviews. Port finish? Bourbon casks? not that I could tell - but maybe that is a good thing because the spirit is very soft and fragrant. And despite it being Cooley (allegedly) tasted blind this is Irish but not in a big way. This is well made, with a light touch. What you get in the glass, is a thoroughly decent everyday light Irish 12 y/o malt - not overpowered by oak or sherry or macho fancy finishes. It's very nice actually.
From an avid bourbon and Tennessee whiskey drinker, who enjoys a single malt from time to time, I love this whiskey. I grabbed one, along with a bottle of Sherry Cask Finish, while passing through Dublin. I had no idea what I was getting into. Neat with a friend, it went way too fast. Prost!
Love this whiskey. Just gets better with age. Blueberries on the nose. A great sipper then a longer finish then most other West Cork malts.
