Made using 100% malted barley, Irish single malt whiskey is distilled at one (hence the word “single”) distillery. The distillation occurs in batches in a traditional pot still. While Irish blends definitely take up the lion’s share of the shelf space, Irish single malt whiskey is a category worth exploring. Bushmills is the granddaddy of them all ...
Single pot still whiskey is a whiskey style that is unique to Ireland. Like Irish single malt whiskey, it also must be distilled at a single distillery in Ireland using traditional pot stills. But here the grain make up is a mix of both malted and unmalted barley. There is also a requirement that at least 30% of both malted and unmalted barley be u...
Again, the “single” here is referring to the number of distilleries, not the number of grains used. A mix of malted or unmalted grains can be used, most commonly barley, wheat, rye, and corn/maize. There isn’t a requirement for the type of stills used, but continuous column stills are the standard. This is a relatively quick and inexpensive method ...

However, Teeling entered the peated whiskey conversation with their Blackpitts bottling. Meanwhile, Waterford is not only exploring the idea of Irish-grown barley, bu...
Okay so yes, for a lot of folks including yours truly, their first introduction to Irish whiskey was via a shot. But (as has just been laid out for you in detail) there is a wide range of styles and flavors to be found in Irish whiskey that you’d miss if you’re only drinking shots. There are some Irish whiskeys that are in excess of 10 years-old an...

30 de ago. de 2023 · Not quite. Single-grain Irish whiskey must be distilled at one distillery — but not necessarily from one grain. For those who drink wine, single grain Irish whiskeys are very similar to the “estate wines” of California, which are made and bottled at the producer’s vineyard.
In fact, there are four (4) primary types of Irish whiskey. Those four types are as follows: Single Malt. Blended. Grain. Single Pot Still. Irish whiskey is arguably the most desirable, popular type of whiskey, and for good reason.
