Thanks to colorful folklore passed down through the generations, whiskies made in Ireland today little resemble their 19th century predecessors. Trouble was, there was none of the traditional whiskey left to taste in the quest to recreate the long lost gems of the Emerald Isle. Fortune gave two good turns; a British excise agent who recorded an Irish mash bill in 1865, and David Wondrich, who found said recipe poring over the microfiche annals of history and passed it along. With this mash bill as a guide, it set out to create our own interpretation of a traditional whiskey of Ireland. To call the version modern might be a stretch— They grow a percentage of the barley organically on their farm, their grains are milled, mashed and fermented in small batches at their distillery and farm in the emerald hills of Sheridan, Oregon, and they distill according to our senses in our handmade, direct-‐fired alembic pot still. The Emerald matures in a mix of French and American oak for three years, and is hand bottled, capsuled, and labeled. The result is a highly aromatic spirit with the weight, richness, and complexity of its forebears.
