J.J. Corry 'The Flintlock' Batch No. 1 Irish Whiskey

J.J. Corry 'The Flintlock' Batch No. 1 Irish Whiskey

Founded in 2015 by Louise McGuane, J.J. Corry Irish Whiskey is known as Ireland's first modern Whiskey Bonder. Irish Whiskey Bonding is a business where Bonders all across the Island would source casks and make new Whiskey Spirit to age and blend for local customers. During the golden era of Irish Whiskey in the 19thcentury, most Irish whiskey was sold by these Bonders, a traditional practice that died out in the 1930s, due to the near collapse of the Irish whiskey industry. With this decline, Ireland lost hundreds of regional and local styles of whiskey, the art of blending losing its former glory.In honor of the brand of the renowned 19century local Whiskey Bonder, J.J. Corry from Co. Clare, J.J. Corry Irish Whiskey has resurrected this lost art of Irish Whiskey Bonding. The Irish company sources new make Whiskey Spirit from Irish distilleries before maturing it in a purpose-built bonded rackhouse located on the McGuane Family farm in Cooraclare, Co. Clare. They source and blend certain rare and mature whiskeys to create their unique house style, while they wait for their spirit to age. J.J. Corry "The Flintlock" is a blend of three, 100% 16-Year-Old single malts aged in ex-bourbon casks, meticulously chosen for their individual flavor profiles. This special expression won Best Irish Single Malt over 13 years old in the Irish Whiskey Awards 2018. This is JJ Corry's first small-scale true Bonder's Blend. A very limited release of 400 bottles, this Irish blend has sweet hints of coconut, baking spice, and peachiness. Pick up your bottle today!
