Killowen Distillery, a name synonymous with artisanal spirit production and a deep-rooted Irish heritage, proudly presents the Barántúil Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey: James A.Barry Edition. Located in the heart of Ireland, Killowen Distillery has always prioritised long, slow, handcrafted production methods, setting them apart in the whiskey world. Their unique approach, which includes long wild open-top fermentations, flame-fed distillations, and worm-tub condensation, was almost extinct in Ireland until revived by Killowen.
This particular whiskey is a testament to Killowen's dedication to preserving and celebrating Irish distillation history. The mashbill, a harmonious blend of malted barley, unmalted barley, oat, and wheat, offers a diverse range of flavours and textures to the whiskey. Each ingredient plays a pivotal role, contributing to the whiskey's complexity and depth.
