Dingle Distillery recently announced the U.S. debut of its Dingle Single Malt Whiskey, its first core expression.
Comprised of malt whiskey that has been matured in ex-bourbon (39%), and PX sherry casks (61%), for six – seven years, the Dingle Distillery is one of the few Irish Distilleries to produce a core single malt created entirely from its own spirit. A triple distilled, non-chill filtered whiskey bottled at 92 proof, Dingle Master Distiller Graham Coult used first fill only casks to produce a richer flavor, while the sweetness from the sherry casks helped to get the flavor in quickly, producing a full-bodied spirit.
“Quality has always been at the heart of our DNA at Dingle Distillery, and that remains the case with our Dingle Single Malt launch,” says Elliot Hughes, Managing Director at Dingle Distillery. “We are one of few distilleries in Ireland solely producing our own spirit – we don’t buy from or sell to other distilleries, and this exceptional quality is evident with the launch of our first core spirit.”
An initial run of 50,000 bottles of Dingle Single Malt Whiskey has been produced for domestic and export markets, with an ambition to produce 100,000 bottles per year by the end of 2023.
The Dingle Single Malt Whiskey is available in 15 markets as well as online via Reservebar.com for $100 per bottle.
