Unleash the Spirit of Ireland

The Sexton Single Malt Irish Whiskey is a testament to craftsmanship, standing tall as America's best-selling Irish single malt. Created by the trailblazing Alex Thomas, one of the few female master blenders, this whiskey embodies the art of fine detail. Made from 100% Irish malted barley and triple-distilled for a silky finish in copper pot stills, it ages gracefully in European oak barrels. These barrels undergo a meticulous process: air-dried for 16 months, toasted, and seasoned with Oloroso sherry. The result? A whiskey where precision meets passion.

This Irish single malt, bottled at 80 proof, offers an exquisite balance of dried fruits and subtle oak, leaving a smooth finish that lingers. Its deep hue is a visual prelude to the taste journey ahead. Aged in wine-soaked Oloroso sherry butts, it boasts a character that belies its youthful years. Whether you're a whiskey aficionado or a curious explorer, The Sexton invites you to savor its award-winning complexity.

It’s ok but not my favorite....

It’s ok but not my favorite. Yes, I bought it for the bottle. It’s spicier than I expected (I prefer sweeter, creamier, smoother spirits) and very dry. I’m not surprised at all to read that it’s aged in sherry barrels, as my very first thought upon tasting was…wine? And oak? I don’t have much of a sweet tooth when it comes to food but I do prefer my drinks on the sweet side. Someone who prefers their drinks on the dry side will probably love this. I still enjoyed it, it just wasn’t my preference.
