The new launch – the sixth addition to Samuel Gelston’s growing whiskey portfolio – is triple-distilled in traditional copper pot stills and matured in ex-bourbon casks, and the recipe contains 50% malted barley & 50% unmalted barley.

Johnny Neill, owner of Samuel Gelston’s Irish Whiskey, Mary-le-bone and Berkshire Botanical Gin, said: “My ancestor Harry Neill, who bought Gelston’s Old Irish Whiskey in 1869 was passionate about sourcing, bonding and blending some of the finest single malt and pot still whiskey from across Ireland. I’m proud to draw upon these whiskey distilling roots and continue his legacy by bringing a range of quality new products to the market.

“The single pot still whiskey is an exciting new addition to the range, providing whiskey drinkers who are appreciative of brand history and provenance with a unique liquid which delivers on taste, quality and price point – and in turn, offers incredible shelf-appeal.”

Samuel Gelston’s Single Pot Still Whiskey is 40% ABV, with an RSP of £22.00 for a 70cl bottle.
