Product description
For the Skibbereen Eagle Blended Whiskey from West Cork, Irish malt whiskey matured in bodega sherry casks was combined with Irish grain whiskey from first fill bourbon casks. It was bottled without chill-filtering and in 1 litre bottles. West Cork Distillers was founded in 2003 by three childhood friends, John O'Connell and cousins Ger McCarthy and Denis McCarthy. They bought two small stills from a Swiss spirits producer and started making whiskey in a back room in Denis' house. It wasn't until 2014 that they moved to their new distillery in Skibbereen. The small town is considered the capital of West Cork and its name means small boat harbour. County Cork is considered the most important region for beer, whiskey and food production in the Republic of Ireland.

The Distillery: West Cork
The West Cork Distillery is located, as the name suggests, in the west of Cork in Ireland. In 2003, the distillery was established by three childhood friends without the prospect of much success. But the distillery turned out better than expected: today, more than 100 people, most of them from Cork, work there to produce and market Whiskeys, Gins and Vodka.
