Clonakilty Bordeaux Cask Finish Single Batch Irish Whiskey

Clonakilty

A confident, wine-forward Irish blend that punches well above its price point. The Bordeaux casks add welcome structure and depth without smothering the underlying whiskey's approachable character — a smart introduction to the coastal Cork house style.

Clonakilty Single Grain Bordeaux Cask Finish Irish Whiskey

Clonakilty

Clonakilty's grain whiskey is sourced from barley grown on the Scully family's own coastal farm, and the Bordeaux cask finish adds a vinous dimension that elevates an otherwise straightforward spirit. It's approachable without being simple — a bridge between Irish tradition and continental influence.

Clonakilty Port Cask Finish Single Batch Irish Whiskey

Clonakilty

Clonakilty's coastal Cork location defines its whiskey as much as the port cask finish does — salt air works its way into the maturation, adding a subtle mineral edge. The port influence is restrained and well-integrated, making this an approachable daily pour with enough going on to hold your attention. Good value for what's in the glass.

Clonakilty Single Batch Double Oak Finish

Clonakilty

Clonakilty's double oak treatment isn't a gimmick — it genuinely rounds out a blend that might otherwise read as simple. The second cask adds depth and spice without losing the easy drinkability that defines great Irish whiskey. A strong value in an increasingly crowded field.
