  West Cork Rum Cask Finished Single Malt Irish Whiskey – 70 cl, 46%

  West Cork Rum Cask Finished Single Malt Irish Whiskey is an elegant Irish single malt that combines traditional bourbon maturation with an exotic rum cask finish. This whiskey is part of West Cork’s acclaimed Maritime Range, where each release reflects the distillery’s craftsmanship and innovation.

  The whiskey is initially matured in first-fill bourbon casks, providing a base of classic flavors such as vanilla and caramel. It is then finished in rum casks from Consorcio Licorero Nacional, adding a tropical character and rich depth to the flavor profile.

  Aroma: Sweet notes of honey and vanilla with hints of caramel and chocolate. Fruity tones balance between fresh and dried fruits.

  Taste: Roasted notes of coffee, toasted bread, and dark chocolate come through clearly, followed by a dry and well-balanced finish.

  West Cork sherry Cask Finished Maritime Release Single Malt Irsk Whiskey 70 cl 46%

  Item no.: 059555-7443

  Off the coast of West Cork the Atlantic runs grey and restless, and it was here that two of the distillery's founders once hauled nets for a living, long before they swapped trawlers for copper pot stills. That same maritime spirit gives its name to the series this bottle belongs to.

  Expert Review

  West Cork Sherry Cask Finished Maritime Release is an Irish Single Malt Whiskey matured in first fill Bourbon casks and finished in Bodegas Baron Sherry casks, bottled at 46%.

  The bottle belongs to West Cork Distillers' Maritime Range, a series built as a tribute to the founders' years at sea. The whiskey is triple distilled from Irish malted barley and rests first in ex-Bourbon casks, picking up soft vanilla sweetness, before moving to Spanish Sherry casks for a finish that adds depth and dried fruit character.

  The bottle itself is shaped like an old glass fishing float, the kind fishermen once used to keep their nets afloat, and the spout sits deliberately off-centre for a smoother pour. A small but deliberate design touch that ties the story to what is in the glass.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Stewed prunes and dried fig meet a touch of sherry and a soft vanilla sweetness that settles over everything.

  Palate

  Sweet to start, with caramel and raisins, before spice steps in and pulls the flavour toward a peppery finish.

  Finish

  Dry, with a lingering spiced edge, rounded off by soft oak.
