Product description

Product description
West Cork Irish IPA is a triple-distilled Blend of Malt and Grain Whiskey, aged in first-fill Bourbon casks and finished in casks previously filled with Craft Beer. India Pale Ale (IPA) is a particularly hop-heavy, fruity and strong craft beer that originated in Britain around 200 years ago and came from Black's brewery in the south of Ireland, in Kinsale.
In 2003, three friends founded one of the few independent distilleries in Ireland - West Cork Distillers.

The Distillery: West Cork

As the name suggests, West Cork Distillers is located in the west of County Cork in Ireland. The independent craft distillery was founded in 2003 by three childhood friends: John O'Connell and cousins Ger and Denis McCarthy. What began as a small experiment in a back room developed into one of the largest Irish-owned distilleries in the country. Today, the distillery employs more than 140 people, many of them from the region, and produces Irish Whiskey, Gin and Vodka for a global audience. read more

    Aroma: Unglaublich: Bier! Citrus Fruit Malt

    Geschmack: Malt Sweet Herbs, Hopfen=Herb

    Abgang:

    Kommentar: Ich bin kein Biermensch. Erstaunlicherweise gefällt mir aber dieses Finish bei West Cork besser, als es deren übliche Finishes(Sherry, Port usw) tun.

    80/100 Unaufdringlicher Whiskey, der, sollte man auf Bierfinishs stehen, nicht enttäuscht. Deutliche Biernote, durch die Zitronen/Grapefruitlastigkeit geschmacklich nahe an den entsprechenden Biermixgetränken.
    Aroma: nicht intensiv, fruchtige Biernoten, Zitrus
    Geschmack: Ananas, Grapefruit, hopfig, Karamell
    Abgang: Zitrus, malzig-hopfig, süß
