West Cork Glengarriff Peat Irish
A smoky Irish single malt finished in peat-charred casks
This exceptional single malt Irish whiskey is matured in sherry casks before being finished in casks charred using peat harvested from the local Glengarriff bog. The result is a unique spirit that beautifully marries traditional Irish malt sweetness with a rich, smoky depth.

West Cork Distillers was founded in 2003 in Union Hall, West Cork, by three childhood friends: Denis McCarthy, Ger McCarthy, and John O'Connell. Today, operating out of Skibbereen, it remains one of the few independent, family-owned distilleries in Ireland, committed to traditional craft methods.
This expression is crafted at the West Cork Distillery, where they utilize custom-built stills and locally sourced ingredients. The Glengarriff Series highlights the local terroir of West Cork by using peat harvested from the nearby ancient bogs to char their finishing casks.
