Pillars of Creation 2026 - 1 x 100ml can - 58.5% ABV - Bonders Exclusive

Pillars of Creation 2026 continues our mission to redefine Irish whiskey through unique collaboration and uncompromising flavours. This release unites Single Pot Still spirit and malt whiskey in a 60/40 split, drawn from single casks and matured in full Oloroso sherry cask influence from Blackwater Distillery (Co. Waterford), blended with spirit from Lough Gill Distillery (Co. Sligo) - married for a further 8 weeks in a 500L Cream Sherry Butt. The result is layered, expressive, and distinctly Irish, a modern interpretation of classic structure and depth. Tasting Notes Nose: Dried cherries, cola sweets and dark fruit sit alongside polished oak, raisins and soft honeyed nuttiness from the Oloroso cask influence. Palate: Rich pot still spice leads into caramelised apple, dates, ginger and leather dankness. Sweet and savoury in balance, with a mineral freshness from the Single Malt that keeps everything lifted and precise. Finish: Medium to long with salted chocolate, tea leaf dryness, oak polish and a deep sherryness that sticks.
