Mizen Head 14yo Cask Strength is an exceptional single malt whiskey crafted by West Cork Distillers, hailing from the southernmost point of Ireland. This unique expression has matured for 14 years in ex-Bourbon casks, allowing it to develop sweet vanilla notes, before being finished for an additional 6 months in Bodega Sherry casks. Bottled at a robust cask strength of 56% ABV, this 700ml bottle offers a rich and full-bodied experience that stands out among the typically lighter, floral Irish whiskeys.
The influence of the Bodega Sherry casks imparts pronounced sherry notes, reminiscent of winter spices and Christmas, paired with lush dried fruit flavors and a spicy honeyed undertone. A distinguishing feature of this whiskey is the subtle pipe tobacco note that adds complexity to its profile. Uncolored and non-chill filtered, this whiskey maintains its natural character and strength, ensuring an intense and authentic tasting experience.
