Cask KD041 was developed as a contemporary acknowledgement of Pure Pot Still Irish Whiskey, using the Killowen style of production, with a GI-compliant mashbill of malted and unmalted barley, oats and wheat. It was matured for 3 years and 8 months in an ex-Kentucky bourbon quarter cask and finished for 7 months in a 120-litre amontillado sherry cask. The result is a fresh and crisp single pot still with an unmistakable citrusy and sweet character.

Bottled at cask strength of 57.2% and limited to 226 bottles.

Tasting notes:
Nose: Fresh green apple and banana bread, mingle with subtle oak, pear drops, rock salt and workshop leather.

Palate: Crisp dryness and sweet spice, with clove, oatmeal and lemon meringue.

Finish: Lingering and dense, with orange and lemon zest, and a touch of honey.
