Cónocht an Earraigh Single Malt

6th release

This limited release honours the ancient celebration of Cónocht an Earraigh, the Spring Equinox, when night and day align and the energy of the earth comes into balance. This is a time of vitality and growth, when young livestock are developing and the fields that were recently fallow begin to flourish into rich pastures. At this time of year, Dingle’s rolling landscape springs into life as the farmland of the peninsula fills with a variety of crops and livestock, with hopes for a long and warm summer ahead.

At Dingle Distillery, Cónocht an Earraigh is the perfect time to sample our casks as they age, as our Master Distiller searches for just the right balance of flavours and characteristics that demonstrate exactly why the difference is Dingle.

Matured in former Bourbon casks with a Cabernet Sauvignon finish. Cónocht an Earraigh expresses aromas of ripe plums, blackberries dusted with icing sugar, toasted almonds and muscovado sugar. On the palate it brings suggestions of rich red fruits, subtle spice, gingerbread, Fruit tarte and treacle toffee. The finish leaves a lingering mouthfeel with sweet fruits balanced with dry tannins.

• Style: Single Malt
• Casks: Bourbon and Cabernet Sauvignon
• ABV: 50.5%
