The Busker Single Malt Irish Whiskey

A beautifully complex Irish Single Malt.

Ever heard of the famous Walsh Whiskey Distillery that was founded in 1999? You don’t have to worry about remembering that name, though, as in June 2015 this Irish distillery was renamed the Royal Oak Distillery. Located in County Carlow in Ireland’s Ancient East region, the distillery boasts a really cool location: the Holloden House, which is an 18th century estate where all 3 styles of their hand-crafted The Busker Irish whiskey are crafted. These guys use both column and pot stills and they age their fine Spirits in all kinds of barrels, including Bourbon barrels from Kentucky, sherry butts from Jerez, rum barrels from the Caribbean and the rare Cantine Florio 1833 Sicilian Marsala Wine casks. You can taste their signature Busker Triple Cask Triple Smooth and all of its components: Single Grain, Single Malt and Single Pot Still Whiskey as individual offerings.

The Busker Single Malt was crafted from 100% malted barley at one single distillery. Distilled in large copper stills and aged in a combination of ex-Bourbon and ex-Sherry casks, this offering gives you enough complexity to keep the connoisseur in you satisfied. Clocking in at 88.6 proof, this is a beautifully complex Irish Single Malt that’s best enjoyed neat or on the rocks so you can really appreciate all the intense flavors of rich, chocolate notes, rounding up with a sweet, creamy finish.
