When Walsh Whiskey first started in \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;1999\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;, they contracted their distilling to Bushmills. But their success has allowed them to build out their own distillery in \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Carlow \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;— in the heart of Ireland’s southern farm country — where they make eight versions of The Irishman Whiskies, six Writers’ Tears blends, and two varieties of Irish Cream Liqueur.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Writers’ Tears Japanese Mizunara Cask Finish \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;was originally a travel retail exclusive created to celebrate the \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Rugby World Cup\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; that kicked off in Japan last year. It was a \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;strictly limited edition\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; of deliciousness and we got our hands on a few bottles to share. It is a blend of Irish Single Malt and Irish Single Pot Still Whiskies that have aged in \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;ex-Bourbon casks. \u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;The kicker is that once married, the Spirits mingle for nine months to finish in \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;rare Mizunara oak casks\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; from Japan. It’s a welcome trip around the world of wood in a single, luxurious Irish dram at a powerful 55% ABV.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;em\u0026gt;*\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;\u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Writers’ Tears\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;\u0026lt;em\u0026gt; has recently changed their labels, and as the original labels are being phased out, there is still a chance that you might receive a bottle different than what is pictured.
