To mark the tragic tenth anniversary of the ghasty Irish Whiskey GI, Blackwater presents a totally modern and non-compliant pot still whisky. In other words if ‘The Midleton Method’ wasn’t imposed on the entire industry and the department didn’t let a French multinational design a Technical File around two of its products, what might Irish pot still whisky have tasted like? Well here’s something to get you chops around.

Double turfed, double oated, double distilled and double casked.

We could say this stuff is Very Rare, but then you might think we have thousands of cases of the stuff clogging up duty free stores around the world. But we don’t. This whisky is strictly limited to 1800 bottles.
