Gold Cock Single Malt Whisky Peated
$93.99
Producer Description (translated from Czech)
"The history of GOLDCOCK whiskey began in the 1970s. Since then, a lot has changed, but it will never change what our whiskey does as it is – spring double barley from Moravia, malt from the Malt House in Bruntál with classic throb sprouts and heavily burned barrels from the European winter oak from Moravian cos. We fill into bottles until we taste it tastes, not sooner, not later. Now, alongside the classic single malt whisky, there is a waiting opportunity in whisky barrels smoky with three times the amount of peat, grain grain whiskey, or rye whiskies, which we believe will be a great continuation of the story.
In 2020, we expanded the basic GOLDCOCK line and came to market with the first GOLDCOCK gin that doesn’t play anything. Juggler has been distilled in our factory for more than a hundred and twenty years, and because we honor traditions very honestly, we have used the same composition of herbs as several decades ago."

$664.99
This 1972 vintage single grain was bottled from a Refill ex-Bourbon Barrel at 50.8% after 52 years. 89.04pts Whiskybase
Producer Description
"This Decadent Drams bottling is a 1972, 52 year old single refill barrel of blended grain whisky. No, we don't have a scooby which grain distillates went into this potion back in 1972. All we know is that it tastes old, mechanical, medicinal, sweet, fruity and luscious. It's like drinking a coconut full of rum inside the mind of a sentient pineapple that's learned how to operate heavy machinery and has since unionised with the other tropical fruits and is now causing headaches for the Labour government."

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 unfair taxation, 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.
