Description
Dingle Bealtaine Whiskey
The third of nine in Dingle's 'Wheel of the Year' Series - this limited edition Pot Still whiskey was released in the Irish market on the 1st May 2023.
"Small. Artisan. Independent. Proud." - These are the 'truths' of Dingle distillery, and which they hold true to themselves.
Located in Country Kerry in the South-West of Ireland, the Dingle Distillery produces whiskey's that they believe to be a product of their environment. They use local well water, manually mash their barley, use wooden fermentation vessels and copper pot stills. The environment they are located in also ensures the maturation process creates a whiskey unlike any other.
For their Pot Still whiskey's they use a mix of malted and unmalted barley.
Fun Fact: Bealtaine is a special day in the Irish calendar. It marks the end of spring and the beginning of summer.
An homage to the arrival of long summer evenings and the Bealtaine fire festival, this is a Pot Still whiskey which has been matured in Bourbon Casks, before being finished in a Shiraz Cask.
The aroma of this whiskey has sweet aromas of sundried raisins, rich dates, and vanilla cream. On the palate there is a warmth with dark syrupy cherries, a nutty caramelness and rich velvety chocolate. This develops into a warm spicy finish.

Perfect Serve
This is easily enjoyed straight, savoured as it is sipped. Adding a cube of ice, or a splash of water can also allow other flavours to develop depending on your palate. Drink however you enjoy!
