Wire Works Whisky Port Cask release is a vatting of our core lightly-peated house style single malt spirit, aged in both fresh Tawny Port barriques, and first-fill ex-bourbon barrels. The result is a complex whisky with a rich full texture and a bold, vibrant fruit profile both from the single malt spirit and the port oak.
Since our earliest days, Port casks have been part of the Wire Works journey. We’ve released Double Oak Port, Full Port, and a Distillery-exclusive hand-fill, all matured in Tawny Port casks. Earlier this year, we explored a new path with Port Wine LBV, a release finished in Late Bottled Vintage Port barriques. Each of these casks brought something unique, but together they’ve built the foundation for this core release.
