Clonakilty Distillery: Crafting Whiskey with Maritime Majesty
A Legacy Rooted in Nature's Bounty
Nestled on Ireland's enchanting southwest coast, Clonakilty Distillery emerges as a beacon of tradition and innovation. With a family legacy spanning nine generations, this maritime distillery harnesses the raw beauty of its surroundings, from the pure waters to the salt-laden sea air and the heritage barley flourishing under the watchful gaze of the Galley Head lighthouse. The unique terroir, blessed with sea mist, soft rain, and ocean spray, lends an unparalleled richness to Clonakilty's whiskey, making each bottle a tribute to its storied land.
Double Oak Finished: A Symphony of Flavors
Clonakilty's Double Oak Finished whiskey is a testament to the distillery's commitment to excellence and innovation. This premium blend of Irish malt and grain whiskey begins its journey in ex-bourbon casks before receiving a distinctive finish in virgin American oak and then in innovative NEOC barrels—a pioneering technique introduced by Clonakilty. The hand-shaven and re-toasted STR barrels from ASC cooperate in Cognac, marking Clonakilty as the world's first Irish whiskey to embrace the NEOC finish. At 43.6% ABV, this whiskey unfolds a complex palette of soft spices, vanilla, and the freshness of cut grass and ripe fruit on the nose, leading to a palate rich in warm spices, grassy and nutty notes, culminating in a well-balanced finish that lingers with spice.
The Clonakilty Distillery Experience: Where Tradition Meets Innovation
Embarking on the Clonakilty whiskey experience is to journey through a landscape where age-old traditions blend seamlessly with cutting-edge innovation. The Double Oak Finished whiskey embodies the spirit of Clonakilty, where every drop tells a story of dedication, craftsmanship, and the unique influence of a maritime climate. This whiskey is not just a beverage; it's an invitation to explore the rich tapestry of flavors only Clonakilty can offer, making it a must-have for whiskey lovers seeking depth, character, and a connection to the land and sea.

What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
