Summary

The Glengarriff Series Peat Charred Cask is a unique expression that showcases the distillery's commitment to traditional methods while embracing modern techniques. The whiskey is aged in casks that have been charred using peat, imparting a distinctive smoky character that sets it apart from other single malts.

On the nose, this whiskey offers a complex bouquet of aromas, blending the earthy peat smoke with subtle hints of vanilla and oak. The palate is equally intriguing, with a harmonious balance of sweet maltiness and smoky undertones. The peat influence is present but not overpowering, making it an accessible choice for those new to peated whiskies.

The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering warmth and a gentle smokiness that invites another sip. This whiskey is a testament to the craftsmanship of West Cork Distillers, offering a rich and layered experience that will appeal to both novice and seasoned whiskey drinkers alike.
