These Irish single malts have been some of our favorite releases from That Boutique-y Whisky Company. The 13- and 14-year-olds were delicious and juicy fruit bombs. This new 15-year old-Irish single malt (from the same distillery as the previous two releases) was bottled at at 50.2% and limited to just 1,900 bottles.
And if you're one of those folks sleuthing your way through the Boutique-y labels, here's the deets on this one (from the producer):
"Aeneas Coffey was the Irishman who improved upon Robert Stein's column stills and patented his own Coffey (say 'coffee') Still in 1830. His new, more efficient piece of kit was soon adopted all around the world, except, ironically, in Ireland. In fact, the Irish* told him to jog on! They were understandably rather attached to their pot stills and the full flavoured single malts and single pot still whiskeys they produced.
(* represented here by ambassadors James Goggin (TBWC), Liam Sparks (Irish Distillers) and Kevin Hurley (Teeling) as well as Bán Poitín's Dave Mulligan, Irish spirits fanatic Charlie McCarthy and Ableforth's own wild goose Lee Peare."
500ml mlProducer Tasting Note:
Nose: A tropical fruit cornucopia; banana, guava, melon, papaya and lime, all drizzled with honey.
Palate: The fruitiness continues with cantaloupe melons papaya, and sweet limes leading. Just delicious!
Finish: The banana returns along with some creamy custard and hints of baking spices.

One of the most sought-after Irish whiskies is this 21-year-old single malt from the distillery. It is matured in a mix of bourbon casks and Oloroso sherry before finishing in Madeira barrels.
Producer Description
"Our Bushmills 21 Year Old is a marriage of single malts matured for at least 19 years in hand-selected Oloroso sherry butts and bourbon barrels, then finished in Madeira casks for a further two years. This unusually long finishing period allows our single malt to patiently mellow, mature and pick up deeper notes of ripe fruit and dried raisins from the fortified Portuguese wine casks. Our 21 Year Old is only crafted in limited numbers and each bottle is numbered."

Two whiskeys are matured for 16 years‚ one in a bourbon barrel and the other in sherry‚ and then they are married together in a sweet port infused cask. It’s a marriage made in heaven! Expect a warm Port-like sweetness on the back of the throat, that drifts up to form an almond marzipan fusion with hints of honey and praline. The finish is deep and jammy, with hints of dark chocolate.
Producer Description: "Our Bushmills 16 Year Old is a marriage of single malts matured for at least 16 years in hand-selected Oloroso sherry butts and bourbon barrels, then finished in port pipes for up to a year. This triple casking transforms the colour to a beautiful ruby red and adds layers of juicy sun-ripened dark fruit and berries, complex almond nuttiness and a treacly vanilla spice."

Could this juice be from Cooley? The signs look good... and boy do we love the juice from Cooley! A 14 year Irish Single Malt bottled at 47.6%.
Producer Description: "Our fourth batch from this undisclosed Irish distillery is a 14 Year Old, a release of just 2,116 bottles at 47.6% abv. If you know your Irish Whiskey history, then you should be able to close down on the distilleries this could come from. It’s a single malt, so that rules out Ireland’s largest distillery, Midleton as they don’t make a single malt."
About the Label
"The inspiration for this label comes straight out of a British made sitcom called ‘Father Ted’ It originally aired on Channel 4 from April 1995 and ran for just three series up until May 1998 Set on the fictional Craggy Island, a remote location off Ireland's west coast, the show is about three priests exiled on the island for various past incidents. Our label comes from an episode called ‘A Song for Europe’ that featured ‘My lovely Horse’"
