Irish whiskey is produced in a slightly different way then Scottish whisky. Since the 1700's the Irish are using unmalted barley for their whiskey because they only had to pay duty for using malted barley. The use of unmalted barley gives the whiskey a silky mouthfeel and some extra spiciness in the finish.
This production method is also known as pot still whiskey.
This is a single pot still whiskey from the Midleton Distillery. Bottled in 2015 as batch no.1 in the Virgin Irish Oak Collection. Not your average Irish whiskey, because after it had matured in ex-bourbon casks, it was finished in virgin Irish oak. 58.2%
