Echlinville Distillery has announced the launch of its inaugural single estate whiskey release: Echlinville – The Beginning.

 

Every step of the production process, from mashing and fermenting the grains, to casking and maturing the spirit, to filling and labelling the bottles, has been completed on-site.

 

Echlinville – The Beginning is made from a vatting of seven to nine-year-old whiskeys distilled from barley grown, harvested, and floor malted on the distillery farm. The release features both a seven-year-old double distilled Pot Still and Single Malt whiskey. The two-bottle release is limited to 750 sets in a custom presentation box.

 

Shane Braniff, owner of the Echlinville Distillery, commented: “This is a momentous day for everyone at Echlinville as we unveil our inaugural Echlinville Single Estate Whiskey release. A whiskey that is inherent to our land. A whiskey that values provenance, community, tradition, and authenticity.

 

“Echlinville – The Beginning is a reflection of everything that is great about this small corner of Ireland — the fertile soil, temperate micro-climate, saline air and the people who crafted these whiskeys from the ground up.”
