Currach Wakame Sake Finish 70cl 50.1°
The first whiskey to be matured in seaweed-toasted barrels, this Currach is a true innovation in the world of whiskey. This Single Malt is aged in American ex-Bourbon oak barrels then finished for 8 months in oak barrels toasted with Kombu and Wakamé seaweed, two expressions with umami notes, which will surprise Irish whiskey lovers. Finally, the whiskey spends 6 to 8 weeks in ex-sake barrels, a traditional Japanese wine made from rice, which brings a delicate and floral side to the Single Malt.
This whiskey demonstrates the association of two terroirs: when malted barley from the south-east of Ireland meets Gohyakumangoku rice from Niigata, in the Japanese region of Chubu. The result is a complex whiskey, between land and sea, with beautiful notes of umami.

Each product is designed to pay tribute and use the best of Irish soil. Origin Spirits creates avant-garde spirits and has decided to keep this particularity when designing its Currach whisky. It is thus the first Whisky with a finish in cask toasted with local seaweed.
The name Currach is a tribute to the hand-built boats which allowed Irish monks to explore distant lands, they played a vital role in the development of the island and its trade.
