Part of our Coillín Darach Oak Series, the award-winning Quercus Alba premium single malt is exquisitely finished in virgin American oak. This renowned species is favoured for its sweet, creamy influence on whiskey and its ability to impart balance, brightness and aromatic lift. It’s known for its sweet caramel, toffee, vanilla and coconut notes — traits traditionally linked to the American bourbon barrels as well as white wine maturation.
