Producer History

The Old Carrick Mill Distillery is an artisan distillery that has revitalised the historic flour mill site in Carrickmacross. The history of the mill is intertwined with the Barton family, who also have links to the B&G vineyard in Bordeaux. Discovering this connection, Steven Murphy, the owner and founder of Old Carrick Mill, travelled to Château Magnol to trace the lineage and establish the historical link.

As a gesture of appreciation, B&G gifted 50 Château Magnol red wine barrels to Old Carrick Mill to age their whiskey. This generous gift has allowed the distillery to create unique expressions of their single malt whiskey, with the Rogues Reserve Single Malt Cask 2 being one of the special releases from these barrels. This cask was selected for its ability to showcase the rich, deep colour and ruby red fruit notes that work perfectly at 59% ABV.

Tasting Notes

Appearance: Old Carrick Mill Rogues Reserve Single Malt Cask 2 has a deep, rich colour with ruby red hues, indicative of its careful aging in red wine barrels.

Aroma: The nose is greeted with a complex bouquet of malt, oak, and ruby red fruit notes, reflecting its unique cask finish.

Flavour: On the palate, this whiskey offers a well-balanced blend of vanilla, spice, and dried fruit, complemented by subtle oak undertones. Each sip reveals new layers of flavour, making it an engaging and enjoyable experience.

Mouthfeel: The mouthfeel is smooth and velvety, with a long, warming finish that leaves a pleasant aftertaste, perfect for both sipping neat and mixing in cocktails.

Food Pairings

Old Carrick Mill Rogues Reserve Single Malt Cask 2 pairs wonderfully with a variety of foods, enhancing both the drink and the dish. For savoury pairings, consider it with rich cheeses such as aged cheddar or blue cheese, where the whiskey’s complexity complements the cheese’s bold flavours. It also pairs well with roasted meats, particularly lamb or beef, where the whiskey’s rich profile enhances the meat’s robust flavours.

For sweet pairings, try it with dark chocolate or a rich dessert like fruitcake. The whiskey’s notes of vanilla and spice perfectly complement the sweetness of these desserts, creating a harmonious and satisfying combination.

Serving and Cocktail Suggestions

While Old Carrick Mill Rogues Reserve Single Malt Cask 2 is best enjoyed neat to fully appreciate its smooth and balanced flavours, it also makes an excellent base for sophisticated whiskey cocktails. For a classic option, try it in an Old Fashioned, where the whiskey’s rich profile pairs beautifully with a touch of sugar and bitters. Alternatively, a simple Manhattan, made with sweet vermouth and a cherry garnish, showcases its complexity while adding a touch of sweetness.

For the ultimate experience, serve it in a crystal tumbler, allowing the whiskey to breathe and its aromas to fully develop. Adding a splash of water can open up the flavours further, revealing new dimensions to this already remarkable whiskey.
