The West Cork Irish IPA Cask Matured Blended Irish Whiskey is a unique blend of 75% grain whiskey and 25% malt whiskey, showcasing the innovative spirit of the West Cork Distillery, located on Ireland's southern coast. Distilled and bottled by West Cork Distillers, this whiskey is first aged in first-fill bourbon casks before being transferred to casks that previously contained Black's of Kinsale IPA for a finishing period. This dual aging process results in a rich aroma of roasted nuts, sweetness, and spice notes. The flavor profile is characterized by a sweet and slightly grainy taste with hints of citrus grass, followed by a finish that carries a subtle hoppy flavor and floral notes. With an alcohol content of 40% Vol. in a 700ml bottle, this whiskey offers a light and fresh experience that allows for easy conversation while savoring its high quality, whether enjoyed alone or with friends.

Opinions on the West Cork Irish IPA Cask Matured Blended Irish Whiskey are mixed. The nose is often described as very floral and sweet, with notes of jasmine, lavender, blossom honey, and lime. On the palate, reviewers noted flavors of elderflower, black currants, mint, and grapefruit, with a slightly astringent and sharp finish reminding you that it is a whiskey. Some found the taste unusual but enjoyable upon getting accustomed to it. The finish is described as medium-short with floral, fruity, and beer wort notes.
