New Irish whiskeys that would make great Christmas presents ITFoodMonth

This week some new whiskeys that might solve a few gift problems. Irish Distillers has released Redbreast Birdcage 12-year-old, a limited edition of their 12-year-old single pot still whiskey, which comes in a metal bird feeder. A donation of €3 will be made to Birdlife International for each bottle sold. This year there will be 3,850 bottles available, an increase from last year.

Wayward Irish Spirits, founded by Maurice O’Connell, is based on the shores of Lough Leane in Killarney. They have just released a mere 300 bottles of Lakeview single pot still whiskey, their first “estate” whiskey, made from barley grown on the farm. It was aged first in ex-Bourbon casks for three months and then for almost four years in ex-Premier Cru Bordeaux barrels with 10 per cent finished in ex-peated casks for three months.

Dingle Distillery released Samhain, a limited edition single malt whiskey earlier this month. Ten thousand bottles will be produced. This is the first in the Wheel of the Year releases, a series of eight whiskeys each symbolising a period in the ancient Celtic calendar. Having concluded their Brabazon Series earlier this year, Teeling has released the first in a series of single pot still whiskeys called The Rising. Limited to 6,000 bottles, it has been matured in Bourbon casks and finished in ex-Carcavelos barrels. Carcavelos is a very rare historic fortified white wine produced in Portugal.
