About This Product

Dunville’s 12 Year Old PX Cask is a single malt Irish whiskey that balances fresh fruit with the sweetness of a Pedro Ximénez sherry cask finish. Orchard and tropical fruits lead the way, with dried fruit, vanilla and gentle spice adding depth.

Green apple, candied orange and banana cake meet raisins, figs and spiced vanilla custard. The texture is rich and juicy, while measured oak gives structure to the sweeter flavours.

It is an appealing choice for drinkers who enjoy sherry-influenced whiskey with a lively fruit character and a warming, softly spiced finish.

Tasting Notes

Fruit-led and softly spiced, with a rich, juicy texture balancing fresh orchard fruit and sweet sherry influence.

Nose: Tropical and orchard fruits mingle with light pepper spice and soft oak. Christmas cake adds a richer dried-fruit note beneath the fresher aromas.

Palate: Green apples and a fresh grassy note lead into banana cake, spiced vanilla custard and candied orange. Raisins and figs bring rounded sherry sweetness, giving the palate a generous, chewy texture.

Finish: Medium in length, with lingering sweet sherry and gentle warmth. Oak becomes more prominent towards the end, giving structure to the remaining fruit sweetness.

Cask & Maturation

Maturation in ex-bourbon casks is followed by a Pedro Ximénez sherry cask finish. This second stage adds a sweeter, dried-fruit dimension to the whiskey’s fresh orchard and tropical fruit character, bringing raisins, figs and Christmas cake notes into the mix. Vanilla custard and candied orange keep the profile rounded, while oak and light pepper spice provide balance through the finish.

  • Initial maturation: Ex-bourbon casks.
  • Finishing casks: Pedro Ximénez sherry, commonly abbreviated to PX.
  • Cask influence: Dried fruit sweetness, candied citrus, vanilla and gentle oak spice.

How to Enjoy
  • Serve neat: Start at room temperature in a tulip-shaped whiskey glass to explore the aromas.
  • Try a little water: Add a few drops, then taste again before adding more.
  • For a cooler serve: Use one large ice cube and allow it to dilute gradually.
  • Pair with food: Try fruitcake, an almond tart or mature cheddar. Keep portions small so you can alternate between the whiskey and the food.
  • Storage: Keep the bottle upright, tightly closed and away from direct sunlight and heat.

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.
