Celtic Cask Ceathair Deag (14) 2001 11 Year Old Brunello Finish
Celtic Cask Ceathair Deag is our fourteenth special release in our line of exclusive whiskeys. This time we sourced a double-distilled unpeated malt whiskey from a well-known distillery. It was initially matured for 11 years in a first-fill bourbon cask before being transferred into a special wine cask.
A final maturation period of over 3 years took place in a top-quality wine barrel from the Altesino estate. Brunello di Montalcino is one of Italy's most sought-after red wines and this barrel was previously used to mature one of Altesino's top cuvees of Brunello. Only 323 bottles were produced.
PLEASE NOTE THIS BOTTLE COMES WITHOUT THE GIFT BOX. SHOULD YOU WISH TO PURCHASE A GIFT BOX, THEY CAN BE FOUND HERE
