Description

In the winter of 2012, a pioneering decision was made in the small town of Dingle on Ireland's west coast: an independent distillery was founded. At one of the westernmost points in Europe, nothing but the deep, seemingly endless Atlantic stretches out behind Dingle. Due to the proximity to the ocean, the distillery's whiskeys mature in a mild, maritime microclimate. Quietly and yet remarkably, the contents of the embossed bottles speak to connoisseurs' palates. Until now, Dingle enjoyment experiences have only been available in the form of small batch releases. Now the Irish are releasing their first permanently available single malt Irish whiskey.

As is typical for Dingle, the first bottling of the Core Range is the result of proud craftsmanship in every step of the whisky production process. Slowly triple distilled in Forsyth's stills, the smooth single malt matures in the ideal climate of the Dingle Peninsula, 69 percent in first fill PX sherry casks and 31 percent in first fill bourbon casks. The cask combination results in a complex single malt with notes of lemon zest, mint and sweet pear on the nose. The creamy mouthfeel is carried by aromas such as caramelized apple, raisins and vanilla, which lead into a honey-sweet finish with lingering spice.
