Tasting Notes

The Irishman Cask Strength Whiskey 700ml
Blended Irish Whiskey - 54.9% ABV | Walsh Whiskey, Carlow, Ireland

Power and Poise from County Carlow
Released annually in limited quantities since 2008, The Irishman Cask Strength represents the pinnacle of Walsh Whiskey's portfolio - a bold, barrel-proof marriage of aged single malt and single pot still whiskey. Each batch is triple distilled and matured in first-fill American oak ex-bourbon casks before bottling at natural cask strength, with no chill filtration or added colour. Presented with individual batch and bottle numbers, it is a rare showcase of Irish whiskey's full-bodied potential, drawn straight from the cask.

On the nose, ripe red apple, toffee, toasted oak and a flash of fresh ginger give way to vanilla bean and cinnamon bark. The palate is mouth-filling and muscular - poached pear, caramel fudge, clove, and nutmeg burst forth with heat and depth, tempered by sweet cereal and orange zest. The oak is pronounced but well-integrated. Finish is long and warming, with peppery spice, dark chocolate shavings and a persistent honeyed malt.

Final Thought
A commanding expression of Irish whiskey's strength and sophistication. Ideal for seasoned enthusiasts seeking purity, structure and complexity - The Irishman Cask Strength is not merely a whiskey, but a statement in every sip.

Distillation & Provenance

Crafted only for our premium spirits

Distillation

The Irishman Vintage Cask is an annual bottling from Walsh Whiskey that combines triple-distilled single malt and single pot still Irish whiskey, with casks hand-selected each year by founder Bernard Walsh. The 2008 release was the first triple-distilled cask strength Irish whiskey released in over fifty years. The single malt component is produced from 100% malted barley, while the single pot still component uses a mix of malted and unmalted barley in the traditional Irish pot still style. Components are matured in ex-bourbon and ex-oloroso sherry casks before being vatted and bottled at natural cask strength without chill-filtration. Bottled at 54.9% ABV.

Provenance

The Irishman is a range of Irish whiskeys produced by Walsh Whiskey at the Walsh Whiskey Distillery in Royal Oak, County Carlow, Ireland. The company was founded by Bernard and Rosemary Walsh in 1999, initially sourcing whiskey from other Irish distilleries before opening their own distillery in Royal Oak, where production commenced in 2016. The Irishman range emphasises triple distillation in copper pot stills and the use of both single malt and single pot still components. The annual Vintage Cask release — first produced in 2008 — was the first triple-distilled cask strength Irish whiskey released in over half a century.
