Description

Starburst Spice Bag Rye Whisky, (limited run of 450 bottles). A European twist on a New World whisky style; here spicy rye is softened by oats and peat, and then aged in a wonderful Ribera del Duero cask, heavy with the plum notes of Tempranillo grapes. Distilled in June 2020 from a mash bill of Irish grown and malted grain of 55% rye, 31% malt, 9% oats and 5% peated malt and bottled in November 2023. Starburst Spice Bag Rye Whisky has won the World Whiskies category as the Gold winner.

Blackwater Distillery, based on the South coast of Ireland, has created three limited, innovative Irish Whiskies. The small-scale distillery crafts small batches that are unique in style and character. In the 1970s Irish whiskey had largely been redesigned as a blended product, so the flavours that made Irish the world’s whiskey of choice were lost to time. On a journey to re-discover the true characteristics of Irish whiskey, spirits writer and TV producer Peter Mulryan set about on a journey to uncover lost flavours and rediscover the traditional distillation process that makes Irish whiskey so unique. And with that, Blackwater Distillery was born. To distil the best Irish whiskey, Peter looked to take it back to its roots. With the help of Head Distiller, John Wilcox, a man known for his brewing expertise and out-of-the-box thinking, and someone Peter aligned with on vision, the distillery’s unique production of Irish whiskey came to fruition. Blackwater’s small-scale production allows for meticulous attention to detail when creating its innovative drinks. With a double distillation process, and a focus on the source of the flavour, found from the grain, the whiskies are made using 100% Irish malt, raw barley, oats, wheat and rye, to retain maximum character and flavour. The distillery creates a select few casks a week, making the new, exciting Irish whiskies a sought-after product, with a unique position in the sector. With fewer than 450 bottles per product, the whiskies are set to grab the attention of spirit lovers and whiskey advocates.
