Lough Ree The Bridge St Mels No.2 6 Year Old Single Malt Irish Whiskey is a distinguished release from Lough Ree Distillery, crafted in collaboration with St Mel’s Brewing Company. This single malt whiskey is meticulously crafted to offer a unique and elegant drinking experience. Distilled from the finest barley at Great Northern Distillery, this whiskey embodies the essence of Irish whiskey.

The maturation process of this 6-year-old single malt whiskey includes a finishing period in a St Mel’s Brown Ale Cask, enhancing its rich and complex character. Each bottle of Lough Ree The Bridge St Mels No.2 delivers an exceptional taste, preserving its natural colour and flavours through non chill-filtration.

This release carries a tinge of sadness as it marks the closure of St Mel’s Brewing Company, a renowned craft brewery in Longford town. Like many small producers, St Mel’s faced significant challenges due to the impact of Covid and rising costs. This whiskey stands as a tribute to their legacy and a celebration of their contribution to the craft beer scene in Co Longford. By supporting independent producers, you help maintain diversity and innovation in the food and drink sector.

Tasting Notes

  • Appearance: Light amber, reflecting its careful ageing process.
  • Aroma: Tropical fruit combined with sweet chocolate and malt.
  • Flavour: Soft and balanced, featuring malt, milk chocolate, brown sugar, melon, and a hint of citrus.
  • Mouthfeel: Silky and full-bodied, with a fruity and sweet finish, highlighted by lingering milk chocolate notes.

Food Pairings

This single malt whiskey pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes. Its rich and sweet character complements roasted meats such as lamb or duck. For a unique pairing, try it with a cheese platter featuring aged cheddar, blue cheese, and dried fruits. The whiskey’s sweetness also makes it an excellent companion to desserts like chocolate mousse or crème brûlée.

Serving and Cocktail Suggestions

Enjoy this single malt whiskey neat or with a splash of water to fully appreciate its nuanced flavours. For a sophisticated cocktail, try a Chocolate Old Fashioned: mix the whiskey with a dash of chocolate bitters, a sugar cube, and garnish with an orange twist. This cocktail highlights the whiskey’s chocolate and fruity notes, perfect for any occasion.
