Ogham Whiskey Releases Its 4th Expression
Ogham Whiskey this week launched their first launch of 2024 with their fourth release - a 6-year-old single malt with a Sherry cask finish.
Its latest expression is a 6-year-old single malt Irish whiskey finished in a sherry cask that offers a delightful and unique tasting experience.
According to the brand, the marriage of the 6-year-old single malt with the sherry cask has resulted in a whiskey of exceptional depth and character.
This release has been sourced through Great Northern Distillery by W.D. O'Connell, is limited to less than 623 bottles and is bottled at 44.23%.
Ogham’s journey began 5-years ago when the Leavy family looked to explore the possibility of developing a distillery on their family farm in Mullingar.
Adam was always passionate about creating a whiskey brand that had a nod to the past, paid its respect to the ancient craft of the Irish person and what better way of doing so by incorporating the original Irish Alphabet into their story - OGHAM.
Ogham is the earliest known form of writing used in Ireland. The earliest surviving examples date back to the 4th century AD meaning that Ogham provides a window into the language, culture, and society of early Ireland.
Speaking of the launch Adam Leavy said
“After a remarkable first year we’re delighted to continue the journey in 2024 with our fourth release. We have big plans for this year and beyond and we’re grateful for the huge support we’ve enjoyed to date from everyone in the whiskey community.”
Commenting on the news, Dan Leavy, said
“With our shared passion for whiskey, building Ogham with family and friends has been incredibly fulfilling and enjoyable. We’re very proud of our latest release and we’re very much looking forward to sharing it with the nation’s whiskey lovers.”
Its bottle has been designed by award winning design agency Third Mind Design in Blackrock, Dublin. The team have gone through 23 (reasoning behind the 44.23% ABV) different variations of bottle designs, concepts, moulds and drawings to arrive at the final product.
Priced at €83 (RRP) per 500ml bottle, Ogham Irish Whiskey is available to purchase at www.oghamwhiskey.com
