Mash bill
A blend of several whiskeys, so no single grain split.
Five-part blend of Irish malt and grain whiskeys: (1) triple-distilled grain in heavily charred virgin oak; (2) triple-distilled grain in ex-bourbon; (3) sherry-matured triple-distilled malt; (4) double-distilled malt; (5) peated triple-distilled malt in ex-bourbon. Component proportions unpublished; peat is a blend component — not a peated single malt.
