The Sexton Whiskey

About The Sexton

The Sexton is an Irish single malt whiskey, aged exclusively in oloroso sherry casks and produced by Proximo Spirits. For newcomers it's an accessible, dark, full-bodied whiskey, perfect to enjoy neat; for connoisseurs it's interesting that the brand has deliberately positioned itself with modern, dark packaging and marketing, an approach that has helped The Sexton stand out in the often tradition-bound Irish whiskey market.

History & Background

The Sexton was launched in 2017 by Proximo Spirits, the same company behind major names like Jose Cuervo, with a clear goal of creating a modern, dark Irish single malt for a younger audience. The decision to age the whiskey exclusively in oloroso sherry casks was made to ensure a consistent, deep, full-bodied flavour profile from bottle to bottle. Since launching, the brand has established a distinct visual identity that deliberately breaks with the more traditional Irish whiskey aesthetic.
