A rare Irish bottling.

Writers’ Tears Irish Whiskey not only has a peculiar name, but also some of the most amazing expressions, including the annual Cask Strength line. It’s straight-forward and unique in many ways. First, it’s a rare blend of aged Single pot still and Single Malt. Single pot still means it’s made by a single distillery from a mash of malted and unmalted barley, distilled in – you guessed it, a pot still. Fun fact: the idea of mixing barley came up in the 18th century when the King of England decided to tax malted barley.

Released in 2022, comes the 12th vintage edition of Writers' Tears Cask Strength. Only 7,920 bottles of it to be precise. You don’t find too many cask strength Irish Whiskeys out there but this one is even more unique: it’s a marriage of aged Single Pot Still and Single Malt Whiskey. Both were triple-distilled, non-chill filtered and aged in American oak ex-Bourbon barrels. The final result clocks in at 54.6% ABV. Each bottle is numbered individually and signed by the creator Bernard Walsh.
