To celebrate St Patrick’s Day, we are expanding our Family Bond series with two unique 20 Year Old Single Malt Irish Whiskeys. These exceptional whiskeys have been finished in Italian Amarone Red Wine casks and Spanish Pedro Ximénez White Wine casks.

Last year, Ahascragh Distillery launched 5 products in the Family Bond Series including three CLAN COLLA Irish whiskeys, UAIS Irish Whiskey and XIN GIN. The introduction of these new Single Malt releases ensures that there is something for everyone. The collection now ranges from super premium Irish whiskeys with unique flavours and depth to more accessible spirits for casual whiskey drinkers.

We hand-selected some of the highest quality aged malt available, finished in exceptional casks that elevate the flavour and texture and bottled it in our home in the West of Ireland. These premium releases are designed to seal family bonds and celebrate unforgettable moments and occasions.

CLAN COLLA IRISH WHISKEY

20 YEAR OLD SINGLE MALT PEDRO XIMÉNEZ FINISH

This exceptional Single Malt in our Family Bond Series was distilled in 2001 and spent 19 years in first fill American White Oak Bourbon Casks, before being finished in Pedro Ximénez Sweet White Wine Casks from the sherry region of Jerez in Spain.

A perfect harmony of honeycomb, vanilla and caramel. The Pedro Ximénez cask finish brings a new level of depth and complexity to this remarkable liquid. Toasted nuts, figs, raisins and dark chocolate enhance the palette and build to a rich, long finish. 

Nose: Vanilla honey with toasted maltiness

Taste: Smooth and complex, creamy with notes of nuts, figs, raisins, dark chocolate and caramel

Finish: A long lingering finale

20 YEAR OLD SINGLE MALT AMARONE FINISH

This fine 20 Year Old Malt was double distilled in 2001, carefully matured for 19 long years in American Bourbon Barrels and finished for one more year in Italian Amarone casks.

Time spent in the Bourbon Barrels lays down flavours that have become the signatures of Irish Whiskey. A perfect harmony of honeycomb, vanilla and caramel. Finishing in the Amarone cask elevates this remarkable whiskey to new heights of texture and flavour. Red fruits, milk chocolate and nutmeg explode on the palate and lead to a lasting, velvet finish.

Clan Colla Amarone is also available as a single cask release of just 300 bottles at cask strength. An expression of undiluted flavour and hidden depths that can be enjoyed at your preferred strength.

Nose: Toasted maltiness with fruity undertones

Taste: Deep red fruits and nutmeg, milk chocolate & caramel

Finish: A long lasting velvet finish

To celebrate St Patrick’s Day, these Limited Edition, Clan Colla Single Malt Irish Whiskeys will be available from Tuesday 15 March.
