Glendalough Double Barrel Whiskey

Glendalough Double Barrel is a single grain Irish whiskey from the Glendalough Distillery in County Wicklow. It is matured first in first-fill bourbon barrels and then in Oloroso sherry casks, before being brought down to strength with Wicklow mountain water and bottled at 42% ABV.

The bourbon wood gives vanilla and honey on the nose, lifted by subtle citrus. The palate is delicate, with vanilla, citrus and stem ginger, before a finish with a hint of oak and dried fruit from the sherry casks. Light and approachable, it is a great introduction to Irish whiskey, whether neat, over ice or in an Irish coffee.
