AHASCRAGH DISTILLERY CASK OWNERSHIP PROGRAMME
Whether you’re an individual, a family, a group of friends, an organisation, club or corporate entity, you now have the opportunity to buy a whiskey cask through the Ahascragh Distillery Cask Ownership Programme.
We're Ireland’s first zero energy emissions distillery. As such, we invite you to not only have a stake in the growing global demand for Irish whiskey, but to own a bespoke spirit that embodies exceptional Irish craftsmanship, quality, heritage and sustainability.

Whiskey Improves With Age
Whiskey is one of those rare commodities that actually improves with age! With premium Irish whiskey like ours, the longer it matures in the cask, the richer its character and depth of flavour becomes—making every year of waiting worth it.
