Acorn Series – Mash bill and Cask Exploration

To establish Whiskey Production at Baoilleach Distillery, I needed to explore the flavours possible. With the Small Pot – Big flavour motto in mind, it began.

Firstly, Single Malt, then Potstill, then 4 plate and then combinations of different peat levels, mash bills and fermentation styles. In total 7 casks were filled, of varying sizes and toast/char levels, Virgin Oak was the baseline from which to learn from each of the individual spirits.

The first Trio came from the second Single Malt Cask and the first Potstill Cask produced, the Potstill cask was split into two and finished in Port and Sherry casks. The Single malt finished in small Marsala casks.  Batch 2 – Trio is a special bottling for Baoilleach Distillery – The Son – The oldest Spirit to date, The Father – The First 4 Grain Spirit, The Holy Smoke – The most heavily Peated.

Two Small Casks remain in the Exploration Series – Both 4 Plate, with mixed Mash bills and Peated.
