The Clonakilty Single Cask Moscatel Cask Strength (Cask #6278) is a remarkable limited-edition Irish whiskey that showcases the bold character of Single Pot Still distillation combined with the elegant sweetness of a rare Moscatel wine cask finish.
 
Crafted at the coastal Clonakilty Distillery in County Cork, this whiskey embodies the distillery’s dedication to innovation while respecting Ireland’s rich whiskey heritage. Bottled at natural cask strength (59.8% ABV), the whiskey delivers intense flavour, depth, and complexity with every sip.
 
The Moscatel cask finish introduces layers of bright citrus and luscious fruit notes that beautifully complement the creamy and spicy character typical of traditional Irish pot still whiskey. The result is a vibrant yet balanced expression that evolves from fresh citrus aromas to indulgent chocolate and coffee notes on the finish.
 
Released as a single cask expression, this whiskey represents a rare opportunity for collectors and connoisseurs to experience a distinctive Irish whiskey matured with an unusual and luxurious cask influence.
