Samuel Gelston's Single Pot Still Irish Whisky Pinot Noir Cask Finish (700 ml)

Description

This whiskey is the result of collaboration between two cousins – Samuel Gelston’s owner, Johnny Neill and Sam Neill, actor and vineyard owner, who is based in New Zealand. It sees the cousins bringing together the two sides of the family, whilst also merging the brilliant flavours and aromas of the two hemispheres.

The whiskey has been triple distilled and matured for 22 months in ex-bourbon casks, before spending a further 21 to 27 months maturing in Sam’s French oak casks, which had previously held his prestigious TWO PADDOCKS Pinot Noir.
