This whiskey isn’t mass produced. Darryl personally hand picks each cask to make sure it’s exactly to his liking. Then every PX Sherry cask is bottled separately, with cask and bottle number noted on the label. Unlike many other Irish whiskeys on the market, Limavady is made with 100% malted Irish barley instead of a mix of malted & unmalted barley, which is true to Limavady’s origins and the traditional way of making great Irish whiskey. Limavady is aged in ex-bourbon barrels and finish in the highest quality PX sherry casks, affectionately known as “Darryl’s Barrels”.
Featuring an old school 'blob-top', with the celebrated Irish wolfhound embossed below, the Limavady glass is based on an original bottle discovered after centuries buried in the fields near Darryl's home. The intentional imperfections of the glass texture, among other details, make a seemingly simple bottle a true relic.
Tasting notes:
Palate: The sherry casks deliver warm, inviting dried fruit and spice notes, adding richness to a toasted vanilla base; smooth at first with a satisfying warmth on the finish.
