Keeper’s Heart Presents Ultra-Aged, Single Barrel Malt
Keeper’s Heart, the American whiskey company with one foot in the US and one foot in Ireland, has announced its oldest release to date: a 21-Year-Old Irish Single Malt finished in Tokaji barrels. Carefully selected from aged stocks of Cooley Distillery Whiskey, this limited-edition whiskey is the first in a yearly series of luxury expressions curated by Master Distiller Brian Nation, each showcasing a unique barrel finishing. The release celebrates the official halfway mark to St. Patrick’s Day.
Brian Nation, renowned for his work on Midleton Very Rare from 2013 to 2020, personally chose these old and rare casks to ensure each bottle offers a sophisticated and distinctive profile. This release, limited to just one cask, is a true collector’s item, marking the beginning of a distinguished series of aged whiskey releases.
The Tokaji finish, derived from the revered Hungarian dessert wine, adds a layer of complexity to an already exquisite whiskey. Bottled at 48.5% ABV, the whiskey captivates the senses with notes of toffee, dark chocolate, vanilla, and ripe peaches, culminating in a long, warming finish with hints of oak and sweet wine.
The 21-Year-Old Irish Single Malt Tokaji Finish Edition stands out as a testament to Keeper’s Heart’s dedication to innovation and crafting luxury products. This limited release retails for $999 per 700 mL and will be available for presale this September and coming to select retailers and Keeper’s Heart’s online shop this October.
