Berry Bros & Rudd Irish Reserve

Berry Bros & Rudd can trace its history back to 1698 when the widow Bourne opened her shop opposite St. James's Palace in London. Today, the current generation of Berry's and Rudds still runs this family business from No. 3 St. James's street. For over a hundred years, Berry's has supplied the wines and spirits to London's royalty, politicians and jet set.

This Classic Irish Single Malt is a traditional, artisanal whiskey from The Great Northern Distillery in the heart of Dundalk, County Louth, Ireland.

Tasting notes: A fresh and invigorating nose, infused with the scent of juicy apples. Spicy vanilla notes emerge from the oak, giving depth and complexity. The whiskey's structure is lush and oily, accompanied by a seductively fresh malic acidity.

The Great Northern Distillery

The Great Northern Distillery is located in Dundalk, County Louth, on the east coast of Ireland. Founded in 2015 by Dr John Teeling, a pioneer in the Irish whiskey industry, the distillery has quickly made a name for itself as one of the largest and most versatile producers of whiskey in Ireland.

A unique feature of The Great Northern Distillery is its ability to produce both malt and grain whiskey, thanks to their state-of-the-art production facilities. The distillery has both copper pot stills for malt whiskey production and column stills for grain whiskey production. This versatility allows them to create a wide range of whiskeys to suit different flavour profiles and markets.

The Great Northern Distillery's whiskeys are known for their high quality and rich flavour profiles, with notes of vanilla, caramel, fruit and subtle spices. The distillery uses a variety of casks for maturation, including ex-bourbon and sherry casks, which contributes to the complexity and depth of their whiskeys.

The combination of a strategic location, modern techniques and a strong commitment to quality makes The Great Northern Distillery a major player in the world of Irish whiskey.
