The Glendalough Distillery was set up by a group of friends from Wicklow and Dublin with a passion for reviving the heritage of craft distilling in Ireland. Glendalough, or the Glen of two Lakes, is one of the most beautiful, and visited valleys in Ireland. Just south of Dublin, the Wicklow Mountains are renowned for their natural, scenic beauty. The area known as “the garden of Ireland” - a name it lives up to with ease. Glendalough is also renowned for its 6th century monastic settlement founded by St Kevin, a legendary monk and the man on our bottle. Monasteries like Glendalough were the birthplace of distilled drinks.

A wonderful pot still whiskey from Glendalough over in the Wicklow Mountains just outside of Dublin. It's made from a 1:2 mashbill of malted and unmalted Irish barley, and obviously distilled in a pot still - the whiskey wasn't distilled by Glendalough, though it was distilled to their specification by an unnamed distillery. It's matured in bourbon casks and then finished for a year in Irish virgin oak casks, made from sustainably felled 140 year old trees from the forests surrounding the distillery. Bottled up at 43% ABV, the oak finish gives a lot of green notes to this otherwise rather creamy whiskey.

Nose:

Raw malt aromas, with tannic oak, creamy vanilla notes and some oak char, with a wave of cinnamon spice.

Palate:

Crystallised ginger and candied citrus, banana custard and maple syrup, leading into green oak and dried herbs.

Finish:

Aromatic clove and more creamy vanilla, alongside some red berries and toasted oak.
