JJ Corry The Battalion Batch 3 (Summer 2022)

The first of the brand's experimental cask series, The Battalion is named in memory of the San Patricio Battalion who fought bravely alongside the Mexican Army during the Mexican-American War of 1846–48. Their unit was composed mainly of Irish immigrants, many of whom were from the West Coast of Ireland, and this release is a
nod to their bravery.

As a modern Whiskey Bonder, the JJ Corry team are explorers, curators and creators of unique expressions. They hand-selected two Single Grain Irish Whiskeys from their library of flavours and decanted them into ex-Tequila casks to rest for six months.

The influence of the agave spirits highlights honey and zesty citrus notes, balanced by
spicy caramel notes from the bourbon ageing.
