Inish Turk Beg Maiden Voyage

The whiskey is triple-distilled, initially matured for at least 10 years, mainly in ex bourbon barrels but blended with a small quantity of port- and sherry cask-matured whiskey before being finished in 13 Poitin casks for a undisclosed 'further period'. The whiskey is then reduced for bottling with local rainwater collected on the island.

This limited edition first bottling consists of 2,888 one-litre hand-blown bottles in the shape of mooring buoys, and each contains some island sand in the glass - as such, Inish Turk Beg claims to be deliberately subverting traditional whiskey presentations, and the look speaks volumes about its attempt to position this product as a contemporary liquor.
