Clonakilty Port Cask Irish Whiskey is a vibrant Irish blended whiskey finished in port casks from Portugal’s Douro Valley, part of Clonakilty Distillery’s Cask Series. Matured initially in ex-bourbon barrels and then gently finished in port casks, it showcases the influence of fortified wine on a triple-distilled spirit. On the nose you’ll find fresh fruit aromas like peaches and citrus with creamy vanilla and oak spice, while the palate reveals rich, fruity layers of cherries, raisins and soft spices with hints of cardamom and gentle pepperiness. The finish is medium-long with lingering sweet-spice notes — a smooth, fruit-driven dram with a distinctive coastal Irish character.
