The story behind it

The maker

The Busker was launched by Walsh Whiskey at the world-class Royal Oak Distillery, which was established in 2016 in the ancient east of Ireland. The brand is celebrated for its modern approach to classic Irish whiskey styles, combining historic distilling traditions with contemporary cask curation.

How it is made

Crafted at the historic Royal Oak Distillery in County Carlow, this whiskey is distilled in traditional copper pot stills. It is uniquely aged in a dual-cask regimen of hand-selected bourbon and sherry casks to achieve its complex character.
