The Dingle distillery was founded in 2012, and since then the trio of brewers and distillers behind this little Irish upstart are busy making quite a name for themselves. Their Irish Single Malt Whiskey is scoring accolades, even in youth, and their gin is making waves well beyond the shores of the Emerald Isle. With gin, it's pretty much all about the botanicals. Dingle shines a spotlight on rowan berries from the mountain ash trees, fuchsia, bog myrtle, hawthorn, and heather for a taste of the Kerry landscape. Dry, clean, and infinitely drinkable.

One of the many newer distilleries on the Irish Whiskey scene is the Shed Distillery, which was founded in 2014. The Drumshanbo Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey is triple distilled with a grain combination of malted barley and Irish Barra Oats. The resulting spirit is aged in a combination of ex-Bourbon and ex-Oloroso casks.
What is Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey you ask? It is whiskey made using a combination of malted and unmalted barley. Why do this, you ask? Why, to dodge taxes, of course! The Malt Tax came into being in Ireland for a short time starting in 1785, enforced by the (insert expletive said in your best Irish accent here) English. The Irish, being Irish, decided that they didn't need to use malted barley for the entirety of the mash used to distill whiskey and started adding portions of unmalted barley. Necessity being the mother of invention, this eventually became a legitimate style of whiskey-making that is now not just celebrated but codified into law in Ireland with the Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey classification.
From the Producer

Aged in Sherry Oloroso and Kentucky Bourbon casks with no added colour and no chill filtration, this 43% Single Pot Still has been proudly distilled by our Head Distiller, Brian Taft."
