Glendalough Double Barrel

County Wicklow, Ireland · 2011'den beri

Glendalough Distillery was founded in 2011, drawing its name and spirit from the ancient monastic valley nestled deep in the Wicklow Mountains of Ireland. The Double Barrel expression embodies a philosophy of patience and layered complexity: the whiskey first matures in new American oak barrels, absorbing vanilla, coconut, and toasted grain character, before being transferred to a second seasoned whiskey cask for an additional period of maturation. This dual-barrel approach builds a whiskey that balances the sweetness of Irish grain with deeper notes of dried fruit, light spice, and a gentle warmth that lingers on the finish. Glendalough positions itself as a craft producer in the truest sense — small-batch, hands-on, and rooted in the rugged landscape that surrounds its home. The Double Barrel is both an accessible entry point into Irish whiskey and a thoughtful expression for those who appreciate the nuance that time and wood can coax from a spirit.
