Boann Single Pot Still Marsala Cask

The Single Pot Still distillate containing locally grown malted barley, unmalted barley, oats and rye was initially matured in heavily charred ex-Bourbon Barrels for this expression. The whiskey was then transferred to refined Sicilian Marsala wine casks made from French oak. The ex-bourbon barrels gave the whiskey a backbone of vanilla and honey topped with characteristics of French oak spices and juicy citrus notes due to the Marsala wine barrels.
