Macaloney Cask Program

There’s nothing quite like pouring a wee dram that you have designed and created yourself.
 

Drinking your whisky takes on a whole new meaning when it’s not just another bottle on the shelf, but comes with fond memories working with our experts to choose from a selection of oak-wood cask types and different whisky spirits from classic single malt, to peated, to pot-still; then tasting the spirit from your cask each year to see how it matures; and filling your own private label bottles to take home and share with friends and loved-ones.

To share this special whisky and its experiences, we created a program that allows you to design your own whisky in our distillery from 5 different whisky spirit options and 5 oak barrel types, leading to a superb, complex and balanced whisky, ‘Traditionally made, by Scots’, in just 3 years.

Spirit Selection

Choose from three unique new make spirits ranging from a classic silky smooth single malt to a smoky peated spirit. Our distillery has been designed to allow both double (Scottish style) and triple (Irish style) distillation.

Spirit Options:

1. Classic Single malt (un-peated)
2. Peated Single Malt
3. Triple Distilled Pot Still (Irish Style)

​

Cask Selection

From the sun kissed valley of the Douro river in Portugal to the lush countryside fields of Kentucky, we’ve traveled the world to find the best casks for you. One of the highlights of our collection are our STR Red Wine Barriques which were used to create Kavalan’s Vinho Barrique, winner of the World’s Best Single Malt award in 2015.

Cask Options:

1. First use Kentucky ex-bourbon cask
2. STR re-charred ex-red wine barrique
3. STR Oloroso sherry barrique
