Currach Single Malt Irish Whiskey (Kombu Cask)

Currach Single Malt Irish Whiskey is a true innovation in the whiskey world, and the first whiskey to be finished in seaweed charred casks – Currach’s first expression with Irish Atlantic Kombu Kelp.

Using the finest of Irish malted barley, the contemporary single malt whiskey is triple distilled before being aged in ex-bourbon casks and is then finished in unique organic seaweed charred virgin oak casks.

Currach Boat

The currach is the traditional Irish boat made from wicker, animal skins and tar. It is one of the oldest types of boat in the world, possibly going back to Neolithic times.  It was used to transport whiskey across the Irish sea to Scotland (first exports of Irish whiskey), and is still used today to harvest seaweed in Ireland.

Our experts say:

It’s this perfect union of the Irish land and sea that creates a rich multi-layered whiskey with a delicate umami character with long finish.
