About this bottle
Knappogue Castle Cask Finish Series 12 Year Marchesi Di Barolo Wine Cask is an Irish whiskey first matured in ex-bourbon barrels, then finished in casks that previously held Barolo from the Piedmontese producer Marchesi di Barolo. Knappogue Castle is known for sourcing and bottling rather than distilling in-house, and its cask finish series exists specifically to explore how different wine casks reshape a base whiskey. The Barolo casks push the profile toward red berry and dark chocolate, layered over the whiskey's own honeyed, orchard-fruit backbone, with oak tannin lending grip rather than sweetness. A whiskey for drinkers who like the vinous, wine-cask style of finishing.
How to drink Knappogue Castle Barolo Wine Cask
Drink it neat in a tumbler to let the red-berry and dark-chocolate notes from the Barolo casks come through fully; ice will mute them. It's also a strong choice for an Irish whiskey Manhattan, where the wine-cask fruit plays well against sweet vermouth.

Questions about this bottle
What's the best way to serve Knappogue Castle 12 Year?
Neat or with a splash of water in a tulip glass at room temperature; Irish whiskey's smoother profile doesn't need ice to be approachable, though a single cube is fine if you prefer it cooler.
What cocktails work well with Knappogue Castle 12 Year?
It's rich enough to drink neat, but it also holds up in an Irish Whiskey Sour or simply on the rocks with an orange twist to play up the wine cask's red-fruit notes.
