Bottled at 43.6% ABV without chill-filtration, it is a fruit-led, smooth Irish whiskey with a gentle coastal character, bringing orchard fruit and cherries together with soft spice. It is an approachable cask-finished Irish whiskey from a family-run distillery on the Cork coast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the distillery\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClonakilty Distillery sits on the edge of the town of Clonakilty, on Ireland’s southwest coast in County Cork. It grew from the Scully family, an Irish farm family who have worked the same land for nine generations, with a big ambition to improve Irish whiskey. The whiskey is matured in a warehouse overlooking the Atlantic, and bottling is handled in-house.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it’s made\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe distillery triple-distils its whiskey for a lighter, sweeter spirit, using a long fermentation and its “gentle cut” method, with spring water from a deep artesian well used to reduce the spirit gradually. Port Cask blends Clonakilty’s own single pot still whiskey with single grain whiskey, drawn from ex-bourbon barrels and ex-port casks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fresh sweet apples and ripe peaches with vanilla, a creamy note and a hint of background wood.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very fruity, with cherries, raisins, soft spices and a hint of cardamom.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium to long, with soft spice and a touch of chocolate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to enjoy it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClonakilty Port Cask Finished Irish Whiskey is easy to sip neat in a tulip glass, and a small splash of water opens up the fruit.
