The Beara Irish Black Cask Blend Whiskey, bottled in 2021, is an exquisite and robust whiskey that delivers a rich and flavorful experience. Crafted by the renowned Beara Distillery and produced at the Great Northern Distillery in Ireland, this whiskey showcases the meticulous attention to detail and the use of crystal-clear spring water from the Caha Mountains, which separate the Beara Peninsula from the counties of Cork and Kerry.
This exceptional blend combines high-quality single malt whiskey made from malted barley with equally intriguing single grain whiskey made from unmalted grains. The single grain whiskey is aged in intensely charred oak barrels, contributing to the whiskey's distinct and complex flavor profile, and giving it a dark reddish-brown to mahogany color. The result is a full-bodied whiskey that boasts a harmonious balance of flavors.
On the nose, the Beara Irish Black Cask Blend Whiskey unveils a warm and inviting aroma that includes hearty pot-still notes, soft chewy caramel, brioche dipped in honey, Madagascan vanilla pods, and sun-kissed raisins. The palate is treated to a rich tapestry of flavors including creamy white chocolate, café latte, crème brûlée, and Doyenne pear. The finish is sophisticated and memorable, with lingering notes of fudge cake, freshly baked crusty bread, and ginseng.
This unique blend, finished with the infusion of clear spring waters from the Caha Mountains and carefully bottled at 40% ABV, can be best enjoyed neat, with ice, or with just a splash of water to open up the rich malt and toasted oak flavors. Although not distilled at Beara Distillery, its hand-selected casks and meticulous finishing process render it a noteworthy addition to any whiskey collection.
