Knappogue Castle 12 Years Old is a signature single malt Irish whiskey made exclusively from malted barley. Triple-distilled in traditional copper pot stills and matured for a minimum of twelve years exclusively in bourbon oak casks, this expression delivers a refined and exceptionally smooth character.

Tasting Notes:

The nose is rich and biscuity, complemented by gentle notes of vanilla shortbread and a lively touch of peppery spice. On the palate, it is mellow and well-balanced, offering a bright, elegant fruitiness alongside creamy vanilla, gentle oak spice, and mild spice flavors. The finish is medium, clean, and smooth, leaving lingering impressions of orchard fruit.

Distillery:

Knappogue Castle whiskey was originally founded by Mark Andrews, who collected and bottled fine casks of pure pot still and single malt Irish whiskey. Named after the historic 15th-century Knappogue Castle in County Clare, Ireland, the brand focuses on meticulous cask selection and traditional independent bottling methods to highlight the purity and distinct profile of classic Irish single malts.
