Lost Irish Whiskey 40% 750ml
Description: | Herlihy and Sands took this diaspora as inspiration to produce an Irish whiskey with an unusual blend of finishing cask types from all six habited continents. It is a whiskey influenced by the world, using: South African brandy casks, Japanese mizunara oak, Sherry casks, Bourbon casks, Caribbean rum casks, Australian tawny casks and Colombian rum casks. Herlihy notes that After many years exploring how the world perceives all things Irish and how the Irish influence the world, we realized we were ready to bring something unique to life. The company describes the whiskey as incorporating three styles of Irish whiskey: grain, malt, and pot still. So, were test-driving a blended Irish whiskey. Lets pick those styles apart. Irish grain whiskey is distilled in a column or continuous still using a mash of no more than 30% malted barley plus unmalted corn, wheat, and/or barley. Irish malt whiskey is 100% malted barley distilled in a pot still. Irish pot still whiskey is at least 95% barley (at least 30% malted and 30% unmalted) with a maximum of 5% of other cereal types distilled, you guessed it, in a pot still. Lost Irish describes right on the front label the impact of the three types as contributing (in order): sweetness, fruitiness, and creaminess + spice. |
