‘Dingle Distillery is proud to launch its highly anticipated sixth and final release of its Single Malt Batch series – Dingle Single Malt Batch 6. Some 15,000 bottles of the liquid have been produced with an all-Port maturation and with an additional 1,000 Cask Strength bottles available.’
Priced at €70.00 (RRP) per 70cl bottle with the Cask Strength priced at €150.00 (RRP), the new Single Malt whiskey (46.5% ABV) will be available to purchase from 30th September 2021.
Our Single Malt Batch 6 is fully matured exclusively in Tawny Port Casks, Batch 6 is a great of example of the interaction between Single Malt spirit and Fortified wine. A whiskey with multiple layers of sweetness and a well-balanced depth of flavour. It really is a must try, even more so as it is the last in the series.

My Tasting Notes:
Nose & Palate – Brings warm caramel, burnt toffee and tropical Mediterranean fruits in abundance. Zest along with dark fruits, cherries, plums and dark chocolate show through on second sip.
Finish – Medium to long, tropical spice, bananas, pears & tobacco with a warm clinging pepper mouthfeel. Sweet port and zest lingers in the background with warm sweet spice.
I first tasted this before its official release and to be honest, I didn’t like it. Maybe because I tasted it during a whiskey event – yes there was a hape of whiskeys consumed. However, when I did purchase a bottle and spent some time with it, I began to discover the many layers behind this expression. Layers of sweet fruit and spice to explore on every sip, the youthful Dingle nose and the lingering port and warm sweet spice along with that ‘Dingle DNA’ that has shone through from Batch 1 to 6. A cracking whiskey to finish off the series and a stellar drop that’s worth seeking out!
Sláinte.
