Organically Irish Bundle

The Arcadian Series of alt-barley is where we champion those maverick growers whose inspirational ethos & way of life respects the land and the old ways in the pursuit of flavour over yield imperative. For the first time we dip into a new vintage: the 2016 organic harvest. Once again Gaia, neopagan goddess & a personification of Mother Earth herself, is our standard bearer for the celebration of this vibrant new edition of Ireland’s only whisky to be distilled from organic Irish barley.

We have collaborated with Túath to bring you our official Irishmalts Túath Glass. A conical shaped nosing and tasting glass for whiskey that functions by concentrating & capturing all the aromas and flavours of Irish Whiskey. The stem provides a secure anchor for the thumb, and either left or right handed users can safely swirl and nose the whiskey, while the larger chamber and wider aperture allow the drinker to retain eye contact by not having to tilt their head back so far. The larger chamber of The Túath allows whiskey drinkers to move seamlessly from a tasting experience to a drinking experience.
