At the Hinch, (taken from Ballynahinch, meaning ‘town of the island’ in Gaelic) and set amongst County Down’s rolling green drumlin hills, we have created a distillery that has aspirations well beyond 'the ordinary', ambitions to be creative well beyond 'the easily achieved'. County Down has a strong distilling history and from the late 18th to the early 20th century was home to seven Irish Whiskey producing distilleries. We are intensely proud to be part of the continuing story of County Down with the creation of the Hinch Distillery.
Our Peated Single Malt is a heavily peated, tripled distilled Single Malt whiskey providing a smooth sweet malt taste and with complex peat flavours, making it a truly unique Irish whiskey.
Tasting Notes: Light golden in colour with a sweet tar, smoky, woodish nose. Immediate strong peat flavours with lingering and nuanced fruit undertones which survive the peat storm. A hint of liquorice comes through on the palate as the peat gently mellows awaiting your next sip. Hinch Distillery is adding exciting new characteristics to the Irish whiskey category through the introduction of Peated Single Malt. Bold, innovative, contemporary Irish whiskey proudly made in County Down.
