Dubliner Irish Whiskey is produced by the Dublin Liberties Distillery, a historic site in the Liberties area of Dublin that dates back to the 1700s. Originally a tannery, the distillery is now a state-of-the-art facility producing some of Ireland's finest whiskeys. Dubliner Irish Whiskey is a blend of single malt and grain whiskeys, aged for a minimum of three years in bourbon casks. This process imparts a smooth and rich character to the whiskey, making it a perfect reflection of Dublin's vibrant and dynamic spirit.
The Dublin Liberties Distillery uses traditional triple distillation methods, ensuring exceptional purity and smoothness. The water used in the distillation process is sourced from their own well, which adds a unique element to the whiskey's character. The combination of local ingredients and meticulous craftsmanship results in a whiskey that is both accessible and complex, making it a favourite among both new and seasoned whiskey enthusiasts.
