Clontarf Classic Blend Irish Whiskey Old Bottling

Clontarf Classic Blend Irish Whiskey is a smooth, approachable triple-distilled Irish whiskey that combines traditional Irish whiskey craftsmanship with the mellow sweetness of bourbon-cask maturation.

Named after the historic Battle of Clontarf in 1014, one of Ireland's most celebrated medieval battles, this expression takes inspiration from the country's rich heritage and enduring traditions.

Produced from a blend of malt and grain whiskey, Clontarf Classic Blend is matured in ex-bourbon oak casks, developing a gentle yet distinctive flavour profile characterised by creamy vanilla, honeyed malt, soft caramel and toasted oak.

Triple distillation contributes to its light, clean character, while bourbon-cask maturation introduces appealing notes of toffee, butterscotch and delicate spice.

On the palate, the whiskey is rounded and easy-drinking, with layers of sweet malt, vanilla, orchard fruit and subtle oak, leading to a pleasantly warming finish.

Clontarf Classic Blend is equally enjoyable neat, over ice or in classic Irish whiskey cocktails.

With its distinctive Irish identity, approachable character and traditional maturation style, Clontarf Classic Blend is an appealing choice for enthusiasts exploring the smooth, fruit-forward character of Irish blended whiskey.

**Bottled at 43%ABV, 750ml.
