While Dingle Distillery has been releasing small batches of its Irish Whiskey for a few years now, this is the first regular expression to hit the shelves. Their Single Malt is triple distilled and bottled at 46.3% after being matured in a combination of PX Sherry and first-fill ex-Bourbon casks. It is purportedly composed of 6 to 7-year-old Dingle Whiskey stock.

This Collaboration Drop from Turntable Blending House features a drop of the Irish. Well, a bit more than just a drop - just over 40% of the whiskey in this bottle hails from Dingle Distillery of Ireland. Here are the notes on the blend, which is bottled at 52% ABV:
Dingle Distillery was founded in 2012 by three friends near the town of Dingle, in County Kerry. The Distillery creates both Single Malt and Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey, as well as vodka and gin.

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
"Every precious drop of Drumshanbo Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey has been triple distilled at the Shed Distillery using Malted Irish Barley, Un-malted Irish Barley and Irish Barra Oats. 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."

Though it claims to be the world's oldest whiskey distillery, the claim is debatable. What is not up for debate is the quality of this tripple distilled whiskey!
Producer Description: "Our Bushmills 10 Year Old is a marriage of single malts matured for at least 10 years in hand-selected bourbon barrels and sherry butts. Zesty and fresh on the nose, followed by notes of ripe fruit, creamy vanilla and soft toasted wood."
