About This Product

Dunville’s 20 Year Old Oloroso is a richly textured Irish single malt that balances fresh red fruit with deeper notes of stewed fruit, nuts and warming spice. Its oloroso sherry-cask finish brings together prunes, dates and raisins, with candied orange and ginger cake adding brightness and warmth.

The mouthfeel is viscous and substantial, while the flavours remain measured and balanced. A long finish of mulled fruit and vanilla cream makes this an appealing choice for drinkers who enjoy mature, sherry-influenced whiskey with depth, texture and a gently unfolding character.

Tasting Notes

Richly textured and fruit-led, with dried fruit, toasted nuts, warming spice and a mellow vanilla-cream finish.

Nose: Orange marmalade and dark fruit meet clove and nutmeg. Caramel, chocolate and a hint of tobacco bring deeper, sweeter aromas beneath the fruit and spice.

Palate: Fresh red fruits develop into darker stewed fruits, prunes, dates and raisins. Candied orange peel, spiced ginger cake and toasted nuts add complexity, supported by a viscous, substantial mouthfeel.

Finish: Long and gradually mellowing, with mulled fruit and vanilla Chantilly cream. Fruit, spice and creamy sweetness carry the flavours into a rounded close.

Cask & Maturation

Fresh red-fruit flavours develop into stewed fruit, prunes, dates and raisins, while candied orange and ginger cake add further layers. The cask influence complements the whiskey’s substantial texture, carrying through to a mellow finish of mulled fruit and vanilla cream.

ABOUT THE BRAND

Dunville’s is one of the great names in Irish whiskey, with a history stretching back to 1808 in Belfast, where it was once among the most celebrated whiskey brands in the country. After disappearing for almost 80 years, the brand was brought back to life by Echlinville Distillery in County Down, with a real appreciation for its heritage and traditional craftsmanship. Known for its rich, smooth character, Dunville’s offers beautifully balanced whiskeys with notes of orchard fruits, vanilla, honey and warming spice. With over 200 years of history behind the name, Dunville’s is a wonderful example of Irish whiskey tradition finding a new lease of life.
