Powers Three Swallow Irish Whiskey

This Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey has been is bottled at 46%.
What is Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey you ask? It is whiskey made using a combination of malted and unmalted barley. Why do this you ask? Why, to dodge unfair taxation, of course! The Malt Tax came into being in Ireland for a short time starting in 1785, enforced by the (insert expletive said in your best Irish accent here) English. The Irish, being Irish, decided that they didn't need to use malted barley for the entirety of the mash used to distill whiskey and started adding portions of unmalted barley. Necessity being the mother of invention, this eventually became a legitimate style of whiskey-making that is now not just celebrated but codified into law in Ireland with the Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey classification.

Dingle Gin
$55.99
The Dingle distillery was founded in 2012, and since then the trio of brewers and distillers behind this little Irish upstart are busy making quite a name for themselves. Their Irish Single Malt Whiskey is scoring accolades, even in youth, and their gin is making waves well beyond the shores of the Emerald Isle. With gin, it's pretty much all about the botanicals. Dingle shines a spotlight on rowan berries from the mountain ash trees, fuchsia, bog myrtle, hawthorn, and heather for a taste of the Kerry landscape. Dry, clean, and infinitely drinkable.

Like its older sibling, production of this small-batch Irish single malt is limited to just 6,000 bottles a year. Matured in a combination of ex-Bourbon and ex-Oloroso Sherry casks, expect deeper fruits and spice notes than you'd normally find on a triple distilled whiskey from the Emerald Isle. Bottled at 40%.
The Irishman 12 Year Single Malt
$112.99
This is an Irish mystery malt, with the original distillery behind the whiskey being kept secret. Walsh Whiskey - the company behind The Irishman and Writer's Tears brands - does not currently have a distillery, though one is in planning with the hope to open in 2026. Rumours usually go with the whiskey originally coming from Midleton Distillery or perhaps Bushmills Distillery. Only 5,000 bottles are released a year. The triple-distilled whiskey is bottled at 43% after maturing for at least 12 years in ex-Bourbon casks.
Producer Description
"A true standout, and that’s down to the distillate and casks it’s aged in. The outcome of a minimum of 12 years maturation in exclusively first fill, flame-charred Bourbon casks. Triple distilled and 100% single malt. Crafted from a mash bill made entirely of Irish barley. An outstanding award-winner, picking up gold medals from Ireland to USA and everywhere in between."

"As a double distilled, single malt, The Tyrconnell® occupies a territory all its own. The double distillation process lets The Tyrconnell ® retain the character of its origin, creating an end product with a delicate flavor that lives alongside a creamy and viscous profile. The Tyrconnell® Single Malt puts a great pressure on those who create it, as every decision between barley selection and bottling will reveal itself in the flavor profile.
