Virgin Oak

Virgin Oak casks are freshly made specifically for us here at Blacks to our own unique specifications. These casks impart vanilla, cloves and caramel flavours and aromas to the whiskey.

The cask is 200 litres and your share will yield *approx 40 x 700ml bottles of 8 year old Whiskey in 2029.

 

Pot Still

Pot Still new-make spirit distilled from special blend malted barley, oats, rye and wheat for a slightly heavier style whiskey, with a distinctive spiciness. Pot Still whiskey is unique to Ireland. The cask is filled at 63.5%. Your whiskey will be bottled in March 2029 at 43% and your Pieces of Eight share will yield *approx 40 x 700ml bottles of 8 year old Single Pot Still Irish whiskey.

*the approx yield quoted allows for a generous 3% per annum loss to the Angels Share, your actual bottling yield could be higher.
