Knappogue Castle 21 Year Old is a limited edition single malt made exclusively from malted barley. It is triple distilled in copper pot stills and matured in bourbon casks for a minimum of 21 years. On the nose and palate, expect hints of fresh baked bread with a mellow, complex taste, finished with a malty cereal sweetness. Non-chill filtered. Knappogue Castle Single Malt Irish Whiskey is named after a beautiful 15th century castle that stands in County Clare, Ireland. The castle was purchased in the 1960's by Mark Edwin Andrews and his wife. He was a pioneer, known for collecting and bottling single malt and pure pot still whiskey at a time when only blended whiskey was popular in Ireland and around the world.

Critic reviews and blind-tasting competition results for this bottle.
Confected, buttery aromas and flavors of brown butter, dried apricots, fudge, and butterscotch toffee … Rich and balanced with spice and baked treats, brown butter and pear.
Aromas of baking spice and Bakewell tart entice the senses, leading to a palate rich in baked apple, creamy caramel, smooth vanilla custard and luscious dried tropical fruits.
A rich spiced stewed fruit character with malt and biscuit notes on the nose. Rounded palate with sweet hints of brown sugar and bright fresh fruit.
Seductive spiced nose with herbs, citrus and lemon custard that leads through to a rich palate of candied oranges and delicate, yet round, sweet notes.
This immersive and intense whiskey has waves of honey and fruit sweetness, floral and herbal notes … Sharp orange, kumquat, and lime flavors mingle with honey, vanilla fudge, and barley sugar. Spices peak and retreat ahead of a sweet finish.
A restrained nose of vanilla, malt, and complex fruit with a mild wood influence. It is dominated by green, tannic wood notes, lacking sufficient richer wood or fruit flavours to alleviate the dryness.
