Sliabh Liag Silkie Dark Description
The Legendary Dark Silkie Irish Whiskey is the first addition to The Legendary Silkie Irish Whiskey Collection. Sliabh Liag Distillers has taken a bold step with Dark Silkie in recreating the taste of Donegal whiskey in the 19th century, which will reintroduce drinkers to the rich smoky peated Irish Whiskey.
Dark Silkie has, at its core, a triple distilled peated single malt which is matured in sherry casks. This single malt is peated to 55ppm (parts per million) which, after the triple distillation, results in a phenol level around 22ppm giving a rich sweet smoky flavor. The peated single malt is blended with a double distilled single malt matured in bourbon barrels and soft grain whiskey matured in virgin oak casks.
As with the multi-award winning Silkie Irish Whiskey, Dark Silkie is hand bottled at Sliabh Liag Distillery in Carrick, County Donegal, and in keeping with the strong tradition of storytelling, still prevalent in Donegal today, The Dark Silkie is named after the Silkies of the Donegal coast, and has been designed to be savored by the glow of a warm turf fire, in the later watches of the night.
