Flaming Pig Whiskey

70cl | 40%

Just so we are clear, no pigs were harmed during the making of this Whiskey.

Flaming Pig Whiskey is carefully made using a meticulous process that exemplifies the essence of Irish whiskey-making. Expert distillers skilfully blend the finest grains and purest water, paying homage to centuries-old traditions.

In 1875, Dublin witnessed an extraordinary event known as the Great Whiskey Fire. Within Malone’s bonded warehouse, 5000 barrels of precious whiskey awaited their fate. But destiny had a different plan. Amidst the stillness, a lone, piercing squeal broke the silence, emanating from a ‘flaming pig’ that had wandered into the warehouse. This unexpected cry served as a vital alarm, saving both the city and its cherished whiskey from the engulfing flames.

In more modern times, the chaps in the Flaming Pig Whiskey distillery char the living heck out of their whiskey barrels prior to use. Their nickname for these smoky and blackened casks is ‘flaming pigs.’

Tasting Note

With a gentle, golden hue, Flaming Pig Whiskey greets the senses with a tantalising aroma of ripe orchard fruits, delicate vanilla, and a whisper of smoky oak.

On the palate, its rich and velvety texture unfolds with a harmonious blend of caramel, toffee, and honey, intertwined with hints of warming spices and dark chocolate.

The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering warmth and a subtle sweetness that dances on the tongue. Each sip of Flaming Pig Whiskey is a captivating experience, inviting you to explore the complexity and depth of flavours that make it truly exceptional.
