Tipperary ‘Homegrown Barley’ Single Malt Irish Whiskey

This first batch of homegrown barley whiskey was limited to just 2,000 bottles. Aged entirely in first-fill ex-Rioja casks, this homegrown barley whiskey was distilled from barley grown on our land, matured in a traditional farm shed right beside our farmhouse and bottled at 50% abv.
The cask was sourced from Bodegas Faustino in Spain and was previously used to age Rioja wine. This was the first longer batch of our homegrown barley whiskey to be bottled onsite at Tipperary Distillery, hand-bottled by our team.

The nose immediately gives an abundance of soft fruits, almost a Victoria sponge sensation with strawberry and raspberry notes and hints of dried grass. The palate compliments this, deep and round with raspberry notes and hints of toasted marshmallow. The finish is medium-long, surprisingly robust for its age.
