Portmagee Whiskey - 9 Year Old

Portmagee 9 is the whiskey that started our Portmagee brand in 2018 as the first ever cask of Portmagee whiskey we blended, finished and bottled.

Portmagee 9 is a blend of nine year old single grain whiskey and thirteen year old single malt whiskey which is single cask married and finished in a Barbados Rum cask. These casks are similar to the rum casks that Captain Magee the 1700's Jacobean smuggler who founded Portmagee, would have smuggled into Portmagee between 1691 and 1727. Once emptied in Portmagee harbour, these same casks would have been used to smuggle Portmagee made spirits such as Poitín and whiskey back out of Ireland for delivery to France, Spain and Portugal.

Portmagee 9 is released several times a year as an exclusive single cask at 40% ABV, each bottle individually hand numbered.
