Dear Members,
Our friends at Irish Whiskey Awards have kindly extended us some invites to this year's judging process. This will be an in-person event and there are two dates to choose from, so please ensure you register for the correct day. Since slots are limited and the event is free of charge, please only register for one session only to allow other members the opportunity to sign-up.
Details below:
When: 23rd & 30th of August
Time: 12:00 - 3:00 PM
Judges will be able to blind taste 2-3 different categories of whiskey in the tasting session. Water, glassware, score-sheets, spittoons etc. will all be provided.
As with all years, there various guidelines and criteria in place: no more than 1cl measures of each whiskey per taster; we encourage the use of spittoons and drinking plenty of water; take breaks between categories and if you start the judging of a category, you must score every whiskey in that category in the same sitting, otherwise all scores for that section will be void.
The score sheets must be returned to the Celtic Whiskey Shop staff member supervising before a taster leaves.
Tipperary Distillery
Tipperary Boutique Distillery is a premium Single Estate Whiskey Distillery based in the abundant rolling pastureland known as the Golden Vale in Ireland’s South West.
Situated on their Farm at Ballindoney outside of Cahir in Co. Tipperary, they are a true grain to glass production. Barley grown on the land and the water which flows through it are the main ingredients in their Whiskeys and Gins which are produced onsite in their own Distillery and enjoyed by spirit connoisseurs all over the world.
MD Jennifer Nickerson is the only female Whiskey Distiller and Poitín Producer in Ireland, whilst her husband Liam is the sixth generation of the Ahearn Family to grow and harvest Barley on the land. Jennifer and Liam are joined by Jennifer’s Father Stuart Nickerson who is a Scottish ‘Master of the Quaich’ and a world renowned Whiskey Maker.
Members may remember Jennifer presenting to us at the last Ambassadors tasting held in the Dingle Crystal Factory in October 2023.
As is usual, there will be a bus provided which will pick members up at John Benny's pub, Strand Street at 1900 hours and we look forward to seeing you there.
