OUR EXCLUSIVE WICKLOW BUNDLE INCLUDES OUR AWARD-WINNING WICKLOW RARE & WICKLOW HILLS BLENDED WHISKEYS.

The first whiskey is our signature Wicklow Rare. It is pale gold in color, aromas of vanilla, honey and baked fruits. It has a very smooth entry and then expansive with a mouth coating, oily texture. Mid palate shows a nuttiness and warmth with hints of raisin and plum. Long, clean finish with subtle marmalade notes and caramel. The Wicklow Blend is as mysterious as the ancient mountains that this blended Irish Whiskey is named for.

The second whiskey is a deliciously mellow and warming dram blended whiskey. The initial flavours of sponge candy, caramel and fruity notes are followed by a distinct toasted almond nuttiness.

Treat the whisky-lover in your life to this ground-breaking pair of excellent, pure and richly complex whiskeys.

DISCOVER BARR AN UISCE
OUR WHISKEY. OUR HERITAGE.
From a place where the grass is ‘a green’ like no other green in the world. A place entombed in ice for thousands of years and then sculpted by giant glaciers. Today, if you are lucky enough to stand at the church door of St. Patricks Barraniskey at sunset, you will see just why Co. Wicklow is called the Garden of Ireland.

The Irish words “Barr an Uisce” (pronounced Bar on Ishka) literal English translation is “above the water”. It is also the Irish name given to Barraniskey, which is a townland set in the heart of the beautiful County of Wicklow, on the East Coast of Ireland. The Irish word “Uisce” or “Water” in English, was used during the time Irish monks first distilled what we now know as whiskey. The monks called it “Uisce Beatha” meaning water of life.

The founder of “Barr an Uisce” Irish Whiskey, Ian Jones, comes from the small village of Redcross, which lies below the townland of Barraniskey. Redcross was a major stopping point for horse and carts travelling from southern Ireland to Dublin many years ago. People who travelled along the East Coast of Ireland found themselves in the village. Redcross became a meeting point for gossip, news, culture and music.

Redcross and Barraniskey were both affected by the penal laws many years ago. In 1803 the Barraniskey church was built for people who moved from the village. The copper coloured cross still stands in the graveyard in Redcross to this day.
