Head Distiller Brian Taft is always looking for the next way to express the character of Drumshanbo Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey. Crafted from a mashbill of malted Irish barley, un-malted Irish barley, and Irish Barra Oats — and aged in single-use Kentucky Bourbon and Sherry Oloroso casks — the flagship expression is celebrated for its exceptional creaminess and complexity. In this special Tawny Port Cask Edition, that foundation becomes a canvas. Tawny Port, aged in small oak barrels and prized for its warming, nutty, dried-fruit character, leaves a rich impression on the whiskey's profile. The Port cask finishing adds layers of dried cherry, warm red fruit, toasted nuts, and a honeyed sweetness that complement the classic Drumshanbo pot spice and vanilla backbone perfectly. The result is a whiskey that feels at once familiar and completely new — deeply rooted in the Drumshanbo distilling philosophy of no added color, no chill filtration, and every drop distilled with intention.
